Topic: Questionnaire $populate "identifier" parameter

I'm looking at the $populate operation on a Questionnaire in SDC (https://build.fhir.org/ig/HL7/sdc/OperationDefinition-Questionnaire-populate.html) and "identifier" parameter doesn't make much sense to me.

It has a type of uri, so if it is for an identifier, it lacks a system to search for. Shouldn't it be of type Identifier instead?

Also, Questionnaire resource has a canonical URI and it doesn't look like you can reference it by it on this operation. Shouldn't this operation have another parameter questionnaireCanonical or something for referring to questionnaire by canonical URI?

that does look confused to me - the type and the language (logical questionnaire identifier) imply it's Questionnaire.url not .identifier, but the definition says otherwise and the name implies that too

@Ivan Dubrov can you submit a change request for us to rename 'identifier' to 'url'?
