-A common pattern to identify an *instance* of an Entry (i.e. an Entry authored by a specific agent at a specific time) is to use the `ActionHash` of the Create action which created the original entry. This can be a persistant way to identify the entry, even when it is updated, as other agents can query for updates themselves to discover the latest version.
