Problem

All implementers parse strings to work with references. There is no clear distinction between local & external refs. It would be nice to have refs more structured:


// for local refs
{
   "subject": {"resourceType": "Patient", "id": "pt-1"}
}
// for external

{
   "subject": {"uri": "http://otherserver/Patient/pt-1"}
}

This apprach also play well with inlining resolved references:

{ "subject": {"resourceType": "Patient", "id": "pt-1"} }

// after inline

{ "subject": {"resourceType": "Patient", "id": "pt-1", "name": [{....}], ....} }
