This really made me consider it, and I can't really see a valid reason to require person objects to create a maintainer for example.

You can use ROLE object instead of PERSON for maintaner creation (and of course for every object, where you can reference person object). Person is *not* required. Well, currently is not possible to create role-maintainer pair like person-maintainer with webuptates, but this isn't hard to implement I think. But you can easily workaround this by creating person-maintainer pair, then creating role, update maintainer and deleting (temporary) person object. With regards, Daniel
