The template parameterization brings a conflict between ids

[takashi.endou.zs@kyocera.jp]

I would like to point out one more thing concerning
uiml-core-4.0-draft_RS021007.doc.

In 8.3 Template Parameterization Listing 9 shows like the following.
<structure>
  <part id="id1" source="#tpl" how="replace">
    <template−parameters>
    <template−param id="button_id">btn_copy</template−param>
    <template−param id="button_label">Click to copy</template−param>
    <template−param id=”entry_id">entry_copy</template−param>
-----------------------~  (a different character)
    </template−parameters>
  </part>
</structure>

Template is a reusable interface component. But if multiple parts
(place holders) source the same template, ids will conflict.

For example.

<structure>
  <part id="id1" source="#tpl" how="replace">
    <template−parameters>
      <template−param id="button_id">btn_copy</template−param>
      <template−param id="button_label">Click to copy</template−param>
      <template−param id=”entry_id">entry_copy</template−param>
    </template−parameters>
  </part>
  <part id="id2" source="#tpl" how="replace">
    <template−parameters>
      <template−param id="button_id">btn_copy_2</template−param>
      <template−param id="button_label">Click to copy 2</template−param>
      <template−param id=”entry_id">entry_copy_2</template−param>
    </template−parameters>
  </part>
</structure>

In 6.2.1 The id and class Attributes it is stated that no two elements
can have the same id within the same UIML document.

I'm afraid that a similar conflict occurs in "restructure" case.
  <restructure at-part="id1" source="#tpl" how="replace">
    <template−parameters>
      <template−param id="button_id">btn_copy_2</template−param>
      <template−param id="button_label">Click to copy 2</template−param>
      <template−param id=”entry_id">entry_copy_2</template−param>
    </template−parameters>
  </restructure>
