Support concurrent updates on the orders API resource
Registered by

If a PUT is made to an existing orders resource, the order record's metadata will be overwritten. Since orders are processed asynchronously by Barbican worker nodes, this could present a race condition with inconsistent order metadata processed by a worker at the same time it is being updated by an API node. This blueprint seeks to avoid this race condition. A motivation for this feature is to support updating SSL certificate orders 'in flight', say to correct a contact email address.
