Summary0006694: clarify that only module definitions can be prefixed by module identifier
Descriptionglobal definitions, i.e. those that are defined directly in module definitions part or a group definition are the only definitions that shall be prefixable by their module identifier. There is some debate that the following paragraph in section 8 also applies to local variables (as seen in conformance test suite case Sem_08020301_GeneralFormatOfImport_006)

"When the definition is referenced in the same module where it is defined, the module identifier of the module (the
current module) also may be used for prefixing the identifier of the definition."

In my opinion, this is not the intention of the paragraph, so this should be clarified.

stf478: analyze the actual rules and alternative solutions. Check text for enumerated name clash resolution (what takes precedence) and related prefixing rules. Proposal: prefix component definitions with self.

STF discussion:
- allow prefixing with module name global definitions only (sentence to be added)
- make prefixing local definition names deprecated, new sub-clause in Annex G

I made one minor change (do -> did) to use the same tense as in other deprecated features.

Otherwise the proposal solves the described issue and is ready to be included in the next version of the standard.
