In addition to the above. If we implement new link creation policy as it's
defined right now, it means that a course that "contain several child
UMOs" and "that was build from the scratch by it's original Author" will
always have version higher than 1.
So, for example, when you create a Topic T from the scratch which has 5
subTopics, 10 Tests and 15 Problems, T version will be at least T-30 after
it's original creation.
