Should 'type' have more specific element names, rather than reusing 'type' for different elements?
Issue #1291
wontfix
The element name ‘type’ is used in several places in the specification, and is therefore not unique and references need to be made to the higher-order element to know which ‘type’ is being referenced.
Where ‘type’ is used, would it be better to be more specific, e.g.: evidence_type, validation_type, verification_type, document_type, record_type, attestation_type, rather than using the same element name ‘type’ in each one as it does now?

Off the top of my head:
would be a breaking change for us, the others probably not.
