Development Trajectory Discussion

• Normalize UploadLayer, UploadFile, UploadedData relations (esp remove key from UploadLayer->UploadData since it's related through UploadFile)
• Pass UploadLayer id or instance to handlers instead of current arguments.
• Clean up import task tracking. Right now import status assumes a persistent backend & a single task id could be referenced by multiple UploadLayer instances if many layers are imported at once.
  • Make single-layer import task?
  • Make task record status & id in UploadLayer instead of task caller?
  • Make task id/status separate table FK'ing both UploadLayer & geonode.layer.models.Layer?
• Remove UploadLayer.name: this value is passed as 'layer' to handlers and abused as sometimes is a layer name, sometimes a path, sometimes a store:layer combo.
• Modularizing the time handling so it doesn't need to be special-cased in so many places.
