There is a lot of information going on here... how important is it that the information is recorded in one document as opposed to recording where the information can be obtained? It would seem a lot better that the BES endpoint remains the definitive source of the job status rather than some other document floating around the system... otherwise maintaining any form of consistency would be very hard IMHO.
good point. On the other hand endpoints tend to disappear, so to keep some information around in the activity instance document has its merits. But it should be historical information, not intended to be "live".
