yes - but should be easy to change :-)

See here:
https://github.com/aerogear/aerogear-unified-push-server/blob/master/src/main/java/org/jboss/aerogear/connectivity/rest/registry/applications/AndroidVariantEndpoint.java#L134-L138

in the "update", we just need to onbly update/replace those things that are
NOT null. Of course, perhaps we need to rethink the "update validation" too:

the "variantID" is not a PK, but it's unique - so a new finder is what you
need.

yes, they should be able to replace an outdated (or revoked) certificate,
API etc.

Not at all.  so if (speaking Androind) ... a new "project" is used - there
is a new SenderID - that's more impact, since the actual mobile app needs
to be updated, but again that's not really a concern for the push server
