SIAPv2 and datacubes and polarization

Anita,

do you find it necessary that the accrefs be returned in a VOTable?
  In a "natural" (=simplest) application of UWS, the accrefs would be
obtained separately. Either one job per cube, with one accref per job,
or one job making five cubes returning five accrefs. It's possible to
make the UWS job return a VOTable of accrefs, but it's not worth the
complication unless there's a specific gain.

Cheers,
Guy
