Quickly glancing through the code, I did not find any use of the class value other than as a value: there's no ${.class.this-or-that} variable or anything like
it, so the restriction sounds far too strict to me. On a first blink, I'd remove the restriction completely.

I'll see if I can find any other reason why the restriction may be present - if there's none, it should be removed or at least weakened to your suggestion.
