Re: [community-group] Proposal: JSON Schema $ref for aliases (breaking change) (#259)

> On this one point I have to say I've resented, in the past, the fact that `.value` gets preferential treatment and that I can't reference an entire subpath of my token tree, or a specific field like a description or attribute. There are relations in my tokens that would allow me to write DRYer code, that I feel I can't express with aliasing being reserved to values.

@Sidnioulz check out the proposal I put together in https://github.com/design-tokens/community-group/pull/298 — it brings in a lot of @drwpow's suggestions from this one, but without breaking changes. To wit, it opens up the possibility of referencing subpaths!
