Agreed. Although it is legal in X3D abstract specification and in VRML/ClassicVRML encodings, it leads to validation difficulties in XML (and at some point JSON when JSON Schema is finished).<br>
<br>
Wondering if we should define a suggested practice for de-duplicating DEF names within a proto, e.g.<br>
<br>
MyWhizzyProto includes DEF SomeDuplicatedName<br>
<br>
might get tidied up to globally rename<br>
<br>
MyWhizzyProto includes DEF MyWhizzyProto.SomeDuplicatedName<br>
<br>
We might also apply this in the PrototypeExpander work if that gets revisited.<br>
<br>
Thoughts?<br>
