Description

In #164 different ids for the same product were added. This meant basically copy pasting the same section of the registry and assigning it a different id.

We should probably add a way to configure aliases, to prevent us from having to copy/paste the same definitions for multiple ids.

Research direction

Start by reading issue #164 and the registry definitions that were duplicated for different product IDs. Identify how product IDs are configured and determine how aliases should reference an existing definition. Done means multiple IDs can use one product definition without copy-pasting registry sections, with the existing behavior preserved.
