Agreed. I don't see this as a must-have.

Did you guys come up with a full list ?


Nope, not yet. We still need to agree on how the "list" should be
structured.

I think it should be dependent on the field definitions. For instance,
it doesn't
make sense to set Audio.Composer on something that's been categorized
as Email.


That is totally correct, but does this have to be reflected in the ontology?
Why not just have this in a written spec, or just implied by common sense?

Each new feature/requirement we add to the spec makes it harder to implement
and harder to understand.

Cheers,
