 * 1) Why is the feature requested or relevant?
 * 2) What does the feature solve? Does it address a generalizable behaviour or it is made to solve a specific use case
 * 3) Examples are provided and demonstrate the expected behaviour by:
 * 4) * Being simple, clear, and targeted towards the feature and not rely on any other external functionality like e.g. other parser functions or extensions.
 * 5) * It should be anticipated that those examples are to be transformed into integration tests.
 * 6) * In case of a modified behaviour, examples demonstrate the old and the expected new behaviour and explain the difference
 * 7) * In case of a new behaviour, examples are written in a step-by-step approach to outline the expected new behaviour
 * 8) * Where feasible, examples outline a use case with the help of the sandbox wiki
