Documentation	An abstract feature provides a set of common properties, including id, metaDataProperty, name and description inherited from AbstractGMLType, plus boundedBy. A concrete feature type must derive from this type and specify additional properties in an application schema. A feature must possess an identifying attribute ('id' - 'fid' has been deprecated).
