There is currently a split in the API where some endpoints (reads) expect a reference ID, while other's expect a name.
We have been unable to enforce ID everywhere in previous pull requests. This issue proposes that the reference ID be removed from the API, and that the reference name (a local ID) be used to identify a reference within a referenceset for search purposes.
