Simple names are not necessarily unique within an Interface Repository; they are always relative to an explicit or implicit
module. In this context, interface, struct, union, exception and value type definitions are considered implicit modules.
Scoped names uniquely identify modules, interfaces, components, homes, value and event types, value members, value boxes,
constant, typedefs, exceptions, attributes, and operations in an Interface Repository.
Repository identifiers globally identify modules, interfaces, components, homes, value and event types, value members, value
boxes, constants, typedefs, exceptions, attributes, and operations. They can be used to synchronize definitions across multiple
ORBs and Repositories.
