Extension of the DiscoveryResult [message #1736586]

I would like to extend the discovery result with an optional field describing the modelId of the discovered thing.

For example if we discover things of thing type "hue:0210" (extended color light), we may find several things. To distinguish between the actual models (LCT001, LCT007, ...) of extended color lights a model id in the discovery result would be helpful. I would not use the result's properties, as they are specifying instance-related properties, e.g. the light id of the discovered light.

Any opinions about this?

Isn't this contradicting https://www.eclipse.org/smarthome/documentation/development/bindings/thing-definition.html#properties:

"It is recommended that at least the vendor and the model id properties are specified here"?

What is wrong about that?

Nothing's wrong about that. I just had the feeling, that a modelId is somewhat more important than just an (optional) property. But since it's optional anyway, it could well stay a property. I agree, no need to change it.
