When opening a .cmof model in the UML editor, or generating Ecore from cmof,
what URIs should be used for primitive type references? In the latest SBVR
cmof model from OMG, the primtive types are defined as:

http://schema.omg.org/spec/UML/2.0/uml.xml#Boolean

These are not resolved when opening or transforming the model and the
resulting types are null. I also believe that this is an error in the SBVR
cmof model; it should not refer to the UML metamodel. So, I looked at the
format used when an .ecore model is saved to EMOF, and this type of
primitive URI is used:

http://schema.omg.org/spec/mof/2.0/emof.xmi#Boolean

So, I would expect that this should be the correct format used in CMOF:

http://schema.omg.org/spec/mof/2.0/cmof.xmi#Boolean

But the current resource loader for .cmof does not recognize this.
As a current workaround, I changed the cmof file to use primitive URIs like
this:

pathmap://UML_LIBRARIES/UMLPrimitiveTypes.library.uml#Boolea n
