Opening this up for discussion: @di observed that the current provisional requirement (that the provenance be pinned by SHA-256) has no security impact, since the provenance contains digitally signatures objects that will fail to verify if tampered with.
At the same time, the index APIs still need some way to signal that the provenance object is actually present. This tweaks the provisional language to have the index serve a URL to the provenance object.
