If an implementation wants to add events that are directly targeting the root catalog object (i.e. some setting changes), then beeing able to express this via an empty array in `CatalogObjectIdentifier` might actually be helpful. To me the interpretation is quite clear: An empty array is the Catalog root. I don't have strong feelings about this though. -- This is an automated message from the Apache Git Service.
