The idea of the hashes was to get relatively short names that are unique. If we do fullnames, we need; 1. Declaration package name. (5-50 characters) 2. Interface name. (1-20 characters) 3. Interface version. (3-8 characters) 4. Property Name. (1-20 characters) Otherwise, I don't think we can be sure it is the same property. It becomes a very long string.
