phi0660.phi003 vs. stoa0169 #507

This is just a placeholder for some thoughts on whether we should change the textgroup for a Perseus edition in terms of maintaining a URN instead of changing it.

In P4, phi0660.phi003.perseus-lat1 was used for the the poems attributed to Sulpicia in the Corpus Tibullianum, the author is also listed as Sulpicia. In Scaife, we continued to use this ID and now have a bumped edition phi0660.phi003.perseus-lat2. The reference to Sulpicia however is found only in the cts_.xml metadata and this work is of course grouped under Tibullus because of the main textgroup phi0660.

I originally created an authority record for Sulpicia using phi0660.phi003 as a related identifier until I discovered that STOA had a separate author and work ID for this same work, stoa0269.stoa002 and cataloged all other editions under that ID (https://catalog.perseus.org/catalog/urn:cts:latinLit:stoa0269.stoa002). I'm wondering if at some point it might be worth it to change the textgroup for phi0660.phi003 to stoa0269.stoa002 and add some kind of notes or structured metadata in the cts_.xml file. Just thinking out loud here, no eminent destruction or redirection of URNs is currently planned.
