RAS22 — RAS FTF: improper use reference to id attributes for element relationships

The original RAS XML schema used id attributes as a way to create associations amongst elements. However, the MOF/XMI version of XML schema removes this requirement and allows for associations amongst elements. Several constraints in section 7.4.14 are affected by this.
Constraint 4: The context-id attribute in the <artifact-context>, <descriptor>, <artifact-dependency>, <variability-point>, <context-ref> and <artifact-activity> element must specify an id from a context element found in the same manifest document.
Constraint 5: The artifact-id attribute in the <artifact-activity>, and <artifact-dependency> elements must specify an id from an <artifact> element found in the same manifest document.
Constraint 6: The variability-point-id attribute of the <variability-point-binding> element must specify an id from a <variability-point> element found in the same manifest document.
Constraint 11: The artifact-id attribute on an <artifact-dependency> element and <artifact-activity> element must use an id from an <artifact> element in the same document.

We propose to update the text for these constraints to say that element "X" should reference another element, "Y", in the same document.
