Steve Lawrence commented on DAFFODIL-2170:
------------------------------------------

Is this maybe related to DAFFODIL-2151 about creating a compatability mode? So 
with CompatabilityMode="experimental" or somethign then we allow hexBinary bits 
length, otherwise it's an SDE? Maybe things like this and choiceBranchKey being 
a list of keys are restricted the same way?

> hexBinary with lengthUnits 'bits' needs experimental property to 
> enable/disable.

> The DFDL Workgroup has concluded that this feature is on the list for DFDL 
> v2.0. (Few things that don't have multiple implementations are going to be 
> added to DFDL v1.0 any more.)
> That means this has to become an experimental feature which means it has to 
> have a property for enabling/disabling it.
