Good hint.

The -00 version of the draft wanted to prepare that work and went the direction you discribe. But the clear feedback was to have the use case draft be a use case draft and list and explain very concrete use cases. The draft will then be used to define the scope which will us then allow to specify the interface subsequently. Regards Martin
