Topic: Mixins usage

Looking at the grammar file at https://github.com/FHIR/sushi/blob/master/antlr/src/main/antlr/FSH.g4 it appears that Mixins can only be used within StructureDefinitions and Instances.
Is there a reason why these cannot also be considered for use in other constraint resources (e.g. ValueSets , CodeSystems etc.)
Richard Kavanagh (May 11 2020 at 12:02):
Looking a bit closer - it appears that the code allows it but the grammar rules don't...

I don't think there was an intentional reason -- it may be that we were just thinking too narrowly when we designed it! Since this relates to the language, it would be a good ballot comment. Are you participating in the ballot? And if so, did you comment on this?
Richard Kavanagh (May 11 2020 at 14:23):
@Chris Moesel I was not aware that the ballot was/had taken place. I just visited the HL7 ballot site and got a 500 response.
Chris Moesel (May 11 2020 at 14:39):
@Richard Kavanagh -- ballot closes today. If you're not signed up for it that's not a problem. I'll file this suggestion for you!
