Summary	0010145: Reconsider the requirement to always create references from an Endpoint to a Reader/Writer.
Description	In section describing behaviour of EstablishConnections SetCommunicationConfigurationCmd, there is a requirement saying: "The EstablishConnections implementation shall create the ToDataSetReader and ToDataSetWriter References according to the link information supplied in ConnectionEndpointConfigurations CommunicationLinks (see 10.13). If the PubSub configuration model is not exposed by this Server, this Reference may point to a Node that is not accessible." Having a reference to a non-existing node is impossible in existing SDKs. Hacks will be needed to achieve such behaviour.

It could be possible to ensure that this information is saved in the CCS on the CM side, but this is also not mandated at this point in time. this issue will require more thought and discussion - leaving it open for now
