 * the child in its association group
 *
 * From the child's perspective: the child "references"
 * the parent via a typeKeyword of the form ref|<parentType>|<parentId>

 * Note: we export this function under 2 names - requestAssociation
 * and acceptAssociation. These actions are functionally equivalent,
 * but we want to make the intent more clear to the consumer.

 * @param type - type of the entity the requesting entity wants to associate with
 * @param id - id of the entity the requesting entity wants to associate with
 * @param context - contextual portal and auth information
