Topic: Setting item.text with an expression?

I am trying to think of a way a reminder message could be shown in a Questionnaire. For example, if there is a Question "last flu shot date", you might want to remind the user to get a new one. One way to do that would be to show an item of type=display with the message. Some of our reminder rule messages we have (from a PHR system) contain embedded variables in them. For example, it might say, "Your last flu shot date was {fluShotDate}. It is time to get another one." So, to support that, we would want those messages to be FHIRPath expressions, but I think there isn't currently a way to set item.text with an expression. (Not even in J#25960.)

I think we hesitated on item.text because of the ramifications of it changing, but you're right, this would be useful. Can you submit a new change request and reference J#25960?
