[DDI-SRG] DDI Profile for applications

[Pascal Heus]

All:
This is just an idea regarding DDI Profile but I'm thinking that
profiles could also be used by application to describe the set of DDI 3
elements they can consume/process or to accompany instances they
produce. This could be useful when you need for example submit DDI to a
service or a tools and need to prepare your metadata ((this becomes a
bit the equivalent oa WSDL for DDI), to know what is the potential
content to the tool output as you may want to further process it, or
possibly for application to application metadata exchange. I don't think
this has a direct impact on the schema (though we may come up with
additional elements/attributes for machine processing), this idea could
simply be integrated in the documentation. Will also file this in Mantis.
