Comment 11 for bug 1730845

Omer, I think in principle this is similar to what I was stating in [1]: formalizing the relationship between these entities improves our ability to reason about logical artefacts and improve the robustness of the overall solution, which now relies on implicit connections between entities based on second-level attributes (e.g. IP, MACs).

My suggestion is to start without taking into consideration the constraints of operating within a predefined API only to see at a later date whether there's is an opportunity (while we iterate on the proposal) to 'refactoring' the existing approach like the trunk one.
