  # If the identifier is not set, generate it before validation takes place.
  # See Annotations::Config::default_attribute_identifier_template
  # for more info.
  #
  # The rules are:
  # - if an identifier is manually set, nothing happens.
  # - if no identifier is set:
  #   - if name is enclosed in chevrons (eg: <http://...>) then the chevrons are taken out and the result is the new identifier.
  #   - if name is a URI beginning with http:// or urn: then this is used directly as the identifier.
  #   - in all other cases the identifier will be generated using the template specified by
  #     Annotations::Config::default_attribute_identifier_template, where '%s' in the template will be replaced with
  #     the transformation of 'name' through the Proc specified by Annotations::Config::attribute_name_transform_for_identifier.
