The target field name is confusing with the target entity, should be really called address ("Targets can have an address and a weight" as opposed to "Targets can have a target and a weight")

We have a target object and a target field. Sounds like we need a breaking API change then?

Not in this PR of course - just a consideration that it's a confusing naming.

overly pedantic, nonblocking note on this comment "we know target and id are unique" - to what does id refer to here? the id of the target? the upstream?
also, certainly target is not unique in this case. :)

should be we can have multiple targets here, but anyone will do as they all have the same 'target' field, so just pick the first

Which makes me wonder, should it be unique? Currently I can have three times a Target with the same target and weight > 0, but does it make sense?
Should we check that every time you add a Target, if a Target with weight > 0 and same target already exists, then return 409 Conflict?

no, the new one overrides the old one, but the old one must be preserved in the history

Problem is, calling /targets/active/ still shows all of them, not just the last one, which doesn't make it clear if all of them are active or just the last one.

that does not matter, because all of those records might differ on the weight property, but they will all have the same target field, and thats the field you're looking for.

both of these issues addressed with PRs- we still need to resolve the erroneous comment :)
