i'm moving up in the world, but i'm still as dumb as a carp. there isn't
any chance that "parent" and "server" are used interchangably, as the
registry may be the sink for data describing an arbitrary sub-delegation
from some root, and parent and child w.r.t. that arbitrary point.

in the dcp vs harald's-one-bit episode of joy, the client (one bit) does
cause an error if unsatisfied, not a warning.

       <complexType name="dcpRetentionType">
         <choice>
           <element name="business"/>
           <element name="indefinite"/>
           <element name="legal"/>
           <element name="none"/>
           <element name="stated"/>
         </choice>
       </complexType>

this only expresses the retention by the policy announcing data collector
(server), not the policy of arbitrary 3rd-parties, which may be "indefinite".
