I think I'd want to see a new type created to represent a handle to a specific name attribute, and then the ability to get those handles, and pass them back into new APIs for getting values, metadata, etc. IOW, I don't think the current APIs are right to reference them by name only, and I'd deprecate them in favor of getting it right. The old ones would still work as is, just without the ability to make such distinctions. -- Scott _______________________________________________ abfab mailing list [email protected] https://www.ietf.org/mailman/listinfo/abfab
