      We will add these extensions as core extensions called "instance-name" and "instance-description".

      Will also define appearance constraints to ensure that these extensions aren't used in resources where there is a "proper" (non-extension-based) slot for name/description (i.e., conformance resources cannot use these extensions). (FHIRPath reflection allows for this kind of constraint, saying the resource type does not have an element where name = 'title', see http://hl7.org/fhirpath/#reflection)

    Description

      add resource.meta extension for name and description

       for background and discussion see this Zulip chat: https://chat.fhir.org/#narrow/stream/179252-IG-creation/topic/Adding.20Description.20for.20Examples.20to.20ImplementationGuide.20-.20how

      rationale is to provide a mechanism to have a natural language name and description for non-conformance and non-terminology resource instances that is represented in the resource for publication use.  This information is intended to populate the 
      ImplementationGuide.definition.resource.description
      and
      ImplementationGuide.definition.resource.name.

      here are the proposed extensions:
