[shrinkwrap-issues] [JBoss JIRA] Commented: (SHRINKDESC-6) Should support to merge two Descriptors of the same type

[Andrew Rubinger (JIRA)]

    [ https://issues.jboss.org/browse/SHRINKDESC-6?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=12624087#comment-12624087 ] 

Andrew Rubinger commented on SHRINKDESC-6:
------------------------------------------

Lessons learned from jboss-metadata:

Do not mix the logic of "merging" into the object model of the metadata itself.  This is fine for us to provide a contract for an external entity to come along and merge 2 instances into a target, but let's be sure we don't put this into the Descriptors themselves.
