I have a case when I want to postpone the save of entities after the enclosing form entity is saved. I have some good reasons for that, like I want to store a reverse reference in the IEF entity. I'm using a custom handler that just does nothing in the InlineFormInterface::save() method to avoid the IEF entity being saved in this stage. But ReferenceUpgrader::registerEntity() enforces a saved entity with ID.
Why?
I don't see any reason why this is enforced. If entities don't have IDs we should avoid registering and, later, the reference for those entities will not be created, allowing 3rd-party code (like mine) to deal with this.
Don't register entities with no ID.
Alternative solutions (but needlessly more complex!):
ReferenceUpgrader swappable (maybe convert to a service?)None.
None.
More relaxed approach, allowing more for 3rd-party
None.
