Proposal: Hiding the Target
Drop this requirement: “When creating a direct reference, it is possible to request that the location of its target be hidden.”
Notes:
The rationale for this requirement was the following scenario:
I have a collection that is highly sensitive, and I don’t want its existence to be known. But I do want to give Tom access to one particular resource in the collection to get his comments on it. So I create a direct reference to it from another location, but I want to be able to insure that Tom can’t find out about the rest of the stuff in the collection where it resides.
