We don't use paths since those can change when the schema 
changes.  Anything that would be a "well-known location" is emitted as part 
of a parcel-specific record type.

So, for example, we could have a "AppRecord" type that contained the UUID 
of the sidebar collection.  That would be the equivalent to a path (i.e., 
designating an item by reference instead of identity).
