MOF26 — There is an inconsistency in the current spec between link equality and link delete

There is an inconsistency in the current spec between link equality and link delete. Link equality only checks for the end values and the association, whereas link delete says: “This may leave the same elements associated by other links for this Association”, implying more than one distinguishable link per pair of elements. This should be resolved according to the fact that in OCL and UML collections resulting from navigating associations can be bags, i.e. contain the same element more than once. Links must be distinguishable individually, not simply by equality of their ends. This will imply that links have some identity criteria: uuids would seem to fit the bill perfectly.
