This remind me of something. Our specs do not hide Unapproved objects 
from the public automatically.
We treat that use case as an Access Control issue. A publisher can 
associate a custom access control policy with
their objects that says that the object is only visible to the public if 
its status is Approved. A registry could also
make that behavior its defauolt access control policy. However, our 
specs only provide the primitives and let
registry operators and publishers make the call.
