CORBA35 — CosExternaliazation Service (bug?)

Page 2-7 of the CosExternalization Service Specification (April 2000)
defines the following interfaces:
CosStream::Node
CosStream::Role
CosStream::Relationship

A CosStream::Node inherits from the CosStream::Streamable interface and
therefore is a streamable object – it has an external_form_id attribute
that enables a FactoryFinder to recreate the object using the
create_uninitialized operation.

Unfortunately, the CosStream::Role and CosStream::Relationship interfaces do
not support the CosStream::Streamable interface and therefore are not
"streamable;" in particular, there is no standard method to obtain a KEY for
them when it is time to internalize them.

Perhaps, I am missing something (it wouldn't be the first time , but
having them support the Streamable interface would certainly make
implementation much easier. Might I suggest the following:

interface Role: CosGraphs::Role, CosStream::Streamable

at a minimum this would permit the CosStream::Node internalize_node()
operation and the CosStream::StreamIO read_graph() operation to use a KEY
value in the FactoryFinder to instantiate the object, before it is
internalized.
