Re: [dxwg] Requirement: There needs to be a property in the profile where the rules for the descriptive content can be provided. This would apply to the entire profile. [ID42] (5.42)

@larsgsvensson I agree that is an issue, but at the same time this is the current practice in the record-based environment. Given the general resistance to change, I suspect that this will be the practice for a while. That's why I think having both a "record-level" and a field-level capability is a good idea, and if we can have both with a single property that would be best. 

I see this as a link to or at least an identifier for the rule set. Not all such guidance rules are online.

The other thing, though, is if we consider this different from indicating generally the standard applied to a data value. If not, then the guidance rules can be included as a type of standard. I don't know if there would be cases where one would need BOTH guidance rules and a link to a formal standard. I can't think of any off-hand, but would we assume that the cardinality of standards applied to a value be non-repeatable? (0,1)?
