Yes, there are no polymorphic foreign references, so the creation id
should be scoped to the particular type, and thus unambiguous in that
example. I'll expand this portion of the spec; how about:


*Creation ids are scoped by type; a separate `creation id -> id` map
MUST be kept for each type. Foreign key references are always for a
particular record type, so use of the same creation key in two different
types cannot cause any ambiguity. Creation ids sent by the client SHOULD
be unique within the single API request for a particular data type. If a
creation id is reused for the same type, the server MUST map the
creation id to the most recently created item with that id.*
