input fields - Inline validation icon usability


I have been looking at the styling for validation of input forms of Bootstrap, and wondered if there was a specific reason for where the icons used for inline input validation is positioned.


enter image description here


I thought that the icon outside the input field would be clearer because there are many different types of input fields that also contain actions (e.g. search), whereas the standard for Bootstrap is to place it within the input field.


Are there some examples or references out there to demonstrate the usability/practicality aspects of where the validation icon is placed?
