> Relationship types support relationship-ends that point to a first-class
> attribute in the entity-type of the end i.e. legacy attribute. For such
> relationship-ends, the associated entity will have the attribute included in
> both 'attributes' and 'relationshipAttributes'.
> For relationships having legacy attributes at both ends, 2 edges will be
> created between the entities in this relationship. This was necessary earlier
> releases (prior to 1.0) due to use of isOwnedRef/inverseRef constraints,
> hence relationship feature was not available then. With introduction of
> relationships it shouldn't be necessary to use legacy attributes; the same
> can be modeled using COMPOSITION relationship.
> To move away from earlier model (of using isOwnedRef/inverseRef), to use
> COMPOSITION relationship, updates to relationshipDef and entitiyDefs for both
> ends will be necessary. This is to track introducing a type-patch named
> REMOVE_LEGACY_ATTRIBUTES, along lines of ADD_ATTRIBUTE, UPDATE_ATTRIBUTE.
