Description

Currently the schema says that the regular expression for an f-component's cc-id value requires it to start with the letter f. This is generally going to be the case (and probably always should be the case but nothing in CC Part 1 appears to explicitly require it) but there are currently extended classes that do not do this, specifically the "IPS" class in the IPS module.

While it throws a schema validation error it doesn't actually prevent the build so it's not blocking anything, but for future usage perhaps it could be downgraded to a warning.

Research direction

Start by locating the schema rule for the f-component cc-id value and compare it with the IPS module's extended class definition. Confirm how schema validation reports this mismatch, then adjust the outcome so the non-f-prefixed IPS value produces a warning rather than an error while preserving validation coverage.
