 - Fixed a “Invalid URL” JavaScript error in the control panel. ([#19041](https://github.com/craftcms/cms/pull/19041))
 - Fixed a bug where queue job progress labels weren’t getting translated.
 - Fixed a bug where the control panel sidebar and Queue Manager were showing completed jobs.
+- Relocated `CraftCms\Cms\Element\Validation\Events\ValidationRulesResolving` to `CraftCms\Cms\Validation\Events\ValidationRulesResolving` to reflect its broader applicability to components and rulesets.
+- Relaxed the allowed types in the `ValidationRulesResolving` event to include any implementation `ValidatesWithRuleset` or a `Illuminate\Http\Request` object.
+- Renamed `CraftCms\Cms\Validation\Events\ValidationRulesResolving::$component` to `$subject`
+- Added `CraftCms\Cms\Validation\Events\ValidationRulesResolving::$ruleset`
