[FEATURE][Connect] Enhanced Entity Modeling (structured properties) 5.3 about data-hub-central-community

[wpaven]

Envision rewrites data models to be non-nested. It seems in 5.2 that breaks nested mappings.

for the archive, for me this exhibits as
Status 500: JS-JAVASCRIPT: let namespacePrefix = entityDefinition.namespacePrefix; -- Error running JavaScript request: TypeError: Cannot read property 'namespacePrefix' of undefined

I believe it is because the mapping conversion triggers are looking for sub-entities in the same file as the parent, so if they have been moved out to pure “$refs” that’s not found, the entity structure is undefined, and we get this JS version of an NPE.

Workaround is to edit the structured properties in quickstart (soon to be DHC) and set each to a non-ref type.

This works only if you never open the model in Connect again.

Connect assumes entities are distinct. Quickstart assume they're embedded. So $refs don't work right in either one. We can provide the user a way to navigate this in Connect.
