Topic: JSON schema modifierExtension on Element

Digging into a customer issue with the FHIR JSON schema, I notice that certain structures have a modifierExtension field in the schema when they should not.

For example, Dosage_DoseAndRate has a modifierExtension, but in the spec this type is an Element (not BackboneElement) so it wouldn't have that field. Same for Timing_Repeat, so I think this is common to Element fields in complex data types.

Not in the published StructureDefinitions. Dosage.modifierExtension exists but Dosage.doseAndRate.modifierExtension does not.
