Maybe it should have UUIDs or something in addition to those database IDs; or maybe the Data Service can use, say, derivation + ID as a unique ID for Cuirass builds?

Indeed. :-) Well, I do hope that status = failed really means build failure; seems we’re not completely done with the infamous “missing .drv” bug though, and that’s erroneously reported as “failed”.
