What if there is a property or method called "returnValue"? I think the constant string returned should contain a character that is not legal for java identifier names. E.g. a white space.

Experts,

another issue where we need some feedback is BVAL-368, which is about the name of path nodes representing return values.

As per the current draft, Node#getName() returns null in that case. Question is, whether we should return something more meaningful, and if so, which value.

The RI used to return "$retval" before we change this to match the spec. Another obvious option would be "returnValue". Having a standardized node name for return value nodes would also help with better toString() implementations for j.v.Path (although that's not standardized).

Any thoughts?

Thanks,
