Kathryn,

Can we include this item into our agenda?

Allow specifying objects in a Request by a Query

Similar to what is there in Subscriptions, it would be beneficial to
allow Registry Request to have a query as a parameter in cases where
ObjectRefList might be just a list of registry objects that could be
defined by such a query.

The rationale is that clients often need to fetch objects (ids) by a
query and then convert ids to an ObjectRefList and then submit the
request. This is less then optimal. The proposed feature would allow for
a single roundtrip and would eliminate any need to fetch objects from
server to client by doing everything on the server side.


Regards,
Nikola
