Description
#### Share the context
Analysis of NIST rev5 control ID references in OpenEmbedded expanded profile revealed some discrepancies when trying to map references to the OSCAL profiles from NIST.
#### Description of problem:
Using the following to define 800-53 ID formats:
* caps with parens and no dots: `AC-11(1)`
* lowercase with dots and no parens: `ac-2.12`
* current rev5 IDs *do not* use roman numerals anywhere
#### Proposed change:
1. remove spaces in ids?
2. document? rev4/rev5 expected ID format(s)
