Property to indicate master or preferred storage #3

Closed csarven closed 6 years ago

csarven commented 8 years ago

A profile may have multiple pimspace:storages, and it is not clear for applications which to use - it can be arbitrary in every use. So it'd be useful to be able to declare the master or preferred storage space e.g., with property pimspace:masterStorage or pimspace:preferredStorage. This is along the lines of pimspace:masterWorkspace.

do you see Type Index Registry addressing this issue?

csarven commented 6 years ago

I'm going to drop this issue after some implementation experience. The simple approach would be to not bother indicating master/primary/preferred. Keeps the pimspace lean. Moreover, applications that are capable of handling multiple storage, they can present a UI to the user to pick from (if the profile has multiple storage references). If there is only one pimspace:storage, application will treat that as the primary storage any way.
