[Developers] /type/link/target_value doesn't support optional:true

[Augusto Callejas]

hi-

it looks like "/type/link/target_value" doesn't support optional:true.
any idea if this will be removed in the future at all?

basically, what i would like to do is query for all "/type/link"s
but regardless if they are value properties (target_value) or
object properties (target).  is there some way i can do this
without optional:true support in target_value?


thanks,
augusto.
