This was the case I was going to point out, as our services support cutouts 
but we would like to provide users the option of getting cutouts or complete 
data files. While we currently do not deploy both services, it would be nice 
to be able to register everything in a way that makes it clear. 

I suppose on the SIA registration side there is the "service-for" concept that 
would be equal for the 2+ SIAs that service the same data.... is that 
duplicating this same multiplicity Paul is talking about. (Note: I haven't 
kept up on the "SIA as a capability of a resource" thing).
