> In e1 type labels were only valid within functions and procedures because
> GENERIC and AGGREGATES were valid only there.
>
> In e2 GENERIC_ENTITY and AGGREGATE may be used to declare
> attributes. Is it
> the intention of e2 to allow the use of type labels in attribute
> declarations as well? The current syntax does allow this, I think, but the
> text in e1, 10.3.15 Type label, would then needed to be updated.
