    Explicit enumeration of objects belonging to this object set. Functionally equivalent to "inOid" filter in "query". Mutually exclusive with "query". Limitation: 1. All uses except for in "roleMembershipManagementWorkDefinition" are considered experimental. (They should work but no guarantees there.) 2. The list here is translated into "has OID" query, so it may not work adequately for large lists of objects (e.g. thousands).
