With the current build process, this would mean that we need two
distinguished names, the directory name and the actual publication ID.

It would be great if we could use the "copyless" mechanism for
publications. Then the directory name would be entirely up to
the user, and the actual publication ID would be the only identifier
which matters to Lenya.

So, if we want to approach this, I agree to storing the publication ID
in publication.xconf.
