Another nitpick :) Although there are only two allowable values and the
default is one of them, for consistency this field should be required(true).
Also do you think it would be helpful to add some/all of this description
to the processor's CapabilityDescription too? That description is pretty thin,
and this is a nice added feature so might be good to draw more attention to it
:)
