Backend.hs [classifies](https://git.kitenet.net/index.cgi/git-annex.git/tree/Backend.hs?h=6.20181011&id=426f0f3f4bff378e7be402d905ed171c6f26e472#n16) keys as \"stable\" or not, with URL keys being unstable. How is this distinction used? I found only one [place](https://git.kitenet.net/index.cgi/git-annex.git/tree/Remote/Helper/Chunked.hs?h=6.20181011&id=426f0f3f4bff378e7be402d905ed171c6f26e472#n111) where it's used, but couldn't quite understand it. If \"stable\" means \"containing a hash of the content\", then wouldn't WORM keys be unstable too?
