> 2) Have the user find the publication via query that sorts on time and filters only for a specific publisher. This could be fragile because with a multi-user system and no hard references between publications and tasks, answering the question "which is the publication for me" is hard because another user could have submitted a publish too. While not totally perfect, this could work.
A "no hard references" design is used in part of Pulp 2, for tracking tasks that result from a scheduled pulp-consumer task. The design is extremely problematic. It prevents QE from testing scheduled pulp-consumer tasks. Thankfully, pulp-consumer is going away, so it's not a huuuge problem with Pulp 2. If Pulp QE is to test a feature in Pulp 3, please avoid a "no hard references" design for that feature.
