> When defining node types/templates we allow authors to defined named requirements (or capabilities). How do we prevent (name) collision if we allow others to augment a type or template definition with their own requirements  or capabilities?
> For example,with the following node template:
> node_templates:
>   mysql:
>     type: tosca.nodes.MySQL
>     properties:
>       mysql_root_password: { get_input: my_mysql_rootpw }
>       mysql_port: { get_input: my_mysql_port }
>     requirements:
>       - host: db_server
> What happens of a second named requirement of "host" is added? 
> What happens if a new Node Type that derives from MySQL is created and attempts to use the requirement name "host" which is already defined on the MySQL type?
> ----
> Need prose and/or examples to discuss if these are errors or are side effects created (such as "choice" of "host".  
> ----
> In relation to this last thought, another bug will be opened in JIRA to ask this question.
