Description

I suspect we are now storing the object in the utility and that this:

  • is not needed
  • is a potential source of troubles (e.g., in migrations because of classes that might be missing).

Research direction

Start by locating the intid utility implementation and tracing where it stores and retrieves objects. Check whether object storage is required by current behavior, then consider migration cases where stored classes are unavailable. Done means the utility no longer stores unnecessary objects without breaking its existing integrations or migrations.
