"resource" launch context parameter

[gotdan]

Do any EHRs support the "resource" launch context parameter? If not, do we want to keep it as part of the spec? If we do keep it, I think we should probably add it to the capabilities extensions in #136...

Cerner's implementation doesn't support the resource launch context parameter.

Hey @gotdan,

Same with my EHR. I see the problem with the resource launch context parameter is that it's not specific enough.

I'd recommend removing it as well.

As we finalize the ballot package, I'm going to add resource to https://github.com/smart-on-fhir/smart-on-fhir.github.io/blob/into-hl7/conformance/index.md for consistency. But then: I'll recommend during ballot reconciliation that we can plan to drop resource from both places.

@grahamegrieve can you comment on this? I think yours is the only implementation I've heard about that may be using this scope.

[grahamegrieve]

well, i won't be - as the use of smart on fhir extends outside the pure EHR plug-in context, a whole lot of people are going to need new contexts beyond the ones the smart app launch currently defines

OK -- so on that view, we can remove this specific scope from the spec and leave room for ad-hoc new scopes as needed or particular use cases.
