Allow multiple usage links sub-types for a given type

Allow multiple usage links sub-types for a given type

Currently it is possible to sub-type the WTPart usage link and to create constraints on the sub-typed link to limit it between role A and role B for specific types. Unfortunately there is no possible way to define more than one usage link for a given type having role A. This limits the value of sub-typing the usage link.

1. Allow to have multiple constraints for the role A type in the relationship constraints manager making it possible to have multiple types of sub-typed usage links for a given type.

2. Allow the user to select the type of usage link to create in the UI between role A and B. For customers not interested in this functionality it could be enabled with a preference.

Additionally, allow to add different usage attributes to each sub-type of the usage link.

It would be interesting to hear what the use cases are for having these different Usage Link subtypes?  What business cases are being solved?
