I'm aware that this fails the "nothing should change at the entity"
principle, though, which seems to have motivated the inclusion of
interfederation entities in the existing UKf downstream feed in the
first place.
And whether or not such a principle causes more work/trouble than it's
worth (which it would be in our case) likely is a function of the
number of entities in your federation.
