Should Fn.Ref take a Text instead of a Fn?

[endgame]

I find my self writing Fn.Ref (Fn.String ...) an awful lot, and I don't think I've ever seen an instance where Fn::Ref was taking a non-literal string as an argument. Does CloudFormation support recursive Fn::Refs, and if not, should this be tighened to Ref : Text -> Fn?

Alternatively, would you take a PR that added Fn.refText : Text -> Fn/Type for the common case, in similar spirit to Fn.renderText?

Yeah, you're right, based on the doc it should only take string, should be safe to change Ref type to Text -> Fn

https://docs.aws.amazon.com/AWSCloudFormation/latest/UserGuide/intrinsic-function-reference-ref.html

You can't use any functions in the Ref function. You must specify a string that's a resource logical ID.

Saw the new release, thank you. I also saw that README.md still has an example that uses String when constructing a ref - I think this needs to be fixed too.
