def _key_to_id(self, key):
"""
Fragments should be permitted to have any desired external_ref -- which means key_to_id needs to store a
mapping of non-standard external refs to uuids. This is only because (at the moment) every entity is stored
in the archive using a uuid as its internal key.
Open question: should this be a general feature? currently only NsUuidArchives allow arbitrary external_refs.
Answer: no. uuids are still king (for now)
This function is a little different from other EntityStore subclasses because it (uniquely) needs to handle
entities from a variety of origins. Therefore we use the link and not the uuid as an identifer. However, we
still need to support retrieval by UUID. **WE WANT TO DO THIS WITHOUT HAVING TO OVERRIDE __getitem__**.
So the operation is as follows:
* _key_to_id transmits the user's heterogeneous input into a valid key to self._entities, or None
- if the key is already a known link, it's easy
- if the key is a custom name, it's almost as easy
- if the key CONTAINS a uuid known to the db, then a link for an entity with that UUID is
NONDETERMINISTICALLY returned
* __getitem__ uses _key_to_id to translate the users input into a key
For the thorns around renaming fragments, see self.name_fragment() below
