Splitting dimmers into two mqtt objects

[labanx]

Currently dimmers are exposed with both on/off and dimmer level on the same attribute.
Looking at other solutions they split these two objects into two groups.

Example
server/room/Dimmer/switch (on/off)
server/room/Dimmer/level (dim level)

Might it be beneficial to use an similar approach? Making the mqtt plugin more friendly for other systems.

Thanks for your feedback @labanx. Could you give some examples of the other systems you are referring to?

Example on platforms that expects this behaviour.

Not directly an an dimmer example, but RGB uses the same approach

https://github.com/cblomart/zwaymqtt
Seems to expose both switch and dimmer

Again not dimmer, but two datapoints

Exposes both binary and "dimming" on z-wave wallmote

@Edubits thanks for the quick response

There is more complex convention about home automation and mqtt https://github.com/homieiot/convention
