I think if we want to prevent the creation of subscriptions that point

identifier instead of a instance-on-disk identifier.

The other option is that we just allow it and make it more robust.

I think we should go with the second option for now. I feel that the effort is better spent making sure that initial syncs that have don't subscribe (for whatever reasons) can be aborted instead of trying to build a concept of node identity before we really need it.
