You can specify an illegal value for a property using [[allows value]] and SMW doesn't warn.  E.g. for a property of Type:Number, [[allows value::NotNumber Bad]] works fine.

(This test has been around since October but I don't think I ever filed a bug.)

This is a particular example of the general issue that no special property warns of errors.  Another example is you can put [[corresponds to::Bad string]] anywhere.  This decouples storing special properties from rules for their use and makes it possible to edit properties and datatypes out of sequence, but it's somewhat unexpected behavior.

Note You need to log in before you can comment on or make changes to this bug.
