    Description

       

      Even if an element is declared with minOccurs="0" and maxOccurs="1" (or just has default maxOccurs, which is 1), we're still requiring that expresions index them using the square-bracket notation.

      This is not portable. For example ISO8583 does this everywhere. We have to modify it to use the brackets to make it work on daffodil. This should not be necessary.
