TARGET: HT, Section 6.1.4
DESCRIPTION: The setGenericHumanRole operation in ws-humantask-api.wsdl
accepts an htd:setGenericHumanRole element. This element is defined in
ws-humantask-api-wsdl.xsd as follows:
<xsd:element name="setGenericHumanRole">
<xsd:complexType>
<xsd:sequence>
<xsd:element name="identifier" type="xsd:anyURI" />
<xsd:element name="genericHumanRole" type="xsd:string" />
<xsd:element name="organizationalEntity"
type="htd:tOrganizationalEntity" />
</xsd:sequence>
</xsd:complexType>
</xsd:element>
The spec doesn't define the possible values for genericHumanRole. The
genericHumanRole should either be a schema type that contains an enumerated
list of values or the spec should list what the well known role names are.
Without a formal definition in place it's going to be an interop issue.
This needs to be an open list to allow a user to extend the list of possible values
