Ajay Yadava commented on FALCON-1308:
-------------------------------------
I am in favor of introducing namespaces but would like to propose slightly
different namespaces.
{noformat}falcon.* for system properties and no namespace prefix for
user-supplied properties.{noformat}
I find this convention concise and no namespace for user properties will ensure
sort of backward compatibility with older properties being defined.
> Allow namespace-ing of custom properties in the entity specification

> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/FALCON-1308
> Project: Falcon
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: common
> Reporter: Pallavi Rao
> Priority: Blocker
>
> There are some Falcon system properties that are supplied as custom
> properties in the Entity definition. Ideally, we should prefix these with
> "falcon.system" to distinguish them from user-supplied properties.
> Currently, we cannot have property names that have '.' in them as the Commons
> CLI (OptionValidator) rejects such names.
