Research direction

Start by comparing node-solid-ws/index.js with lib/create-server.js at line 103, focusing on how parent-container changes are handled when entries are added or removed. Done means changes to parent containers emit the expected websockets-pubsub notification, including cases the request URL alone cannot identify.

Written by the indexing model from the issue text.

Description

When a parent container changes, it's not picked up by https://github.com/solid/node-solid-ws/blob/master/index.js because that code only looks at the URL of the request and has no way of knowing whether any parent containers were created in the process. We probably need to call https://github.com/solid/node-solid-server/blob/0542fa24b240936eac3a8051f9ca01a8e93e1912/lib/create-server.js#L103 explicitly when adding/removing entries in (parent) containers
