Do we really need separators ("*") in EVSEID

In clause H.2.1 EVSEID Syntax, the EVSEID is defined with separators as follows:

<EVSEID> = <Country Code> <S> <EVSE Operator ID> <S> <ID Type> <Power Outlet ID>

<S> = *1 ( “*” ), optional

and the following example is provided: FR*A23*E45B*78C (separators “*” are allowed in Power Outlet ID; in example Power Outlet ID = 45B*78C)

However, the EVRoaming Foundation strongly recommends, not to use the optional separator in EU.

Proposal:

In H.2.1 EVSEID Syntax add a note below the definition of <S>:

NOTE For EU it is strongly recommended, not to use the optional separators (for details, see white paper of EVRoaming Foundation: Whitepaper ID formats as agreed in EU by ID Registration Offices and used in OCPI,
