Spec's Expressiveness

Problem

Currently, you can easily come into wrong assumptions that something would work in the specification.

We need to find minimal requirements to implement a sane spec plugin.

Constraints

Assumptions

Considered Alternatives

Decision

  • no defaults for sw/_/key specifications (default will not work for ksLookup(/sw/sthg/key))
  • plugins are not allowed to create keys (may change in future; depends on plugin positions)

The spec plugin should yield errors when it detects such situations.
