disregard parts of that - the return property is just under-specified in our schema as well ;) we could just add descriptions to the return properties wherever we cannot specify them cleanly (for whatever reasons), and follow-up on Thomas' patch to display the description if it is available (in addition to the return type and, if available, return specification). how does that sound? _______________________________________________ pve-devel mailing list pve-devel@pve.proxmox.com https://pve.proxmox.com/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/pve-devel
