This is from the day frameworks existed and only one framework with a specific name could exist for the system; so an an ecosystem with - name: docker, origin: canonical, type:framework - name: hello-world, origin: canonical, type: app - name: hello-world, origin: mvo, type: app A call on QualifiedName would return - docker - hello-world.canonical - hello-world.mvo That said, I don't want to get into the history of this, at least not over email :-)
