Topic: ElementDefinition.path characters too strict
Ardon Toonstra (Sep 08 2021 at 09:22):
ElementDefinition.path contains the following rule:
Element names SHALL NOT contain the characters ,:;'"/|?!@#$%^&*()[]{}
This is however too strict because polymorphic elements should have the '[' and ']' in the element name.
Shall I create a ticket?

I don't think it's too strict, but it should have clarification. Technically, the "[x]" isn't considered part of the name for the purposes of that statement.

I should perhaps include a notion about the polymorphic convention. I was searching in the spec for this convention but could not find it. Is it documented somewhere?
