Description Paul Harmon CLA 2011-10-24 14:10:47 EDT 
In RBD, the "+" operator could be used synonymously with the "::" operator, in regards to Arrays. This should not be treated like this in EDT.

The "+" operator should only be valid in EDT if the LHS or RHS of the binary expression is a text (string) type. In this case, the expression should be treated like a simple string concatenation.

The "+" Operations defined in EList should be removed.

I have updated validation and EList.egl to remove these concatenation operators for arrays.
