/**
 *
 * Spiff Extensions can show up in two distinct ways. The useProperties toggles between them
 *
 * 1. They might be a top level extension, such as a buisness rule, for example:
 *
 *    <bpmn:extensionElements>
 *      <spiffworkflow:calledDecisionId>my_id</spiffworkflow:calledDecisionId>
 *    </bpmn:extensionElements>
 *
 * 2. Or the extension value may exist in a name/value pair inside a Spiffworkflow Properties extension. You would
 * do this if you wanted to hide the values from the SpiffWorkflow enginge completely, and pass these values
 * through unaltered to your actual application.  For Example:
 *
 *    <bpmn:extensionElements>
 *        <spiffworkflow:properties>
 *            <spiffworkflow:property name="formJsonSchemaFilename" value="json_schema.json" />
 *        </spiffworkflow:properties>
 *    </bpmn:extensionElements>
 *
