Uploading results of targeted GRB/FRB followup searches

In at least two occasions, people have recently requested PyGRB candidates to be uploaded to GraceDB for detchar and PE followup. One difficulty with this is that PyGRB, being a targeted followup search of an existing transient, reports a p-value (false-alarm probability) associated with data around that particular transient, instead of a false-alarm rate as commonly understood in GraceDB land. PyGRB is also a coherent search, which may create some more impedance mismatch in terms of LIGOLW tables. A similar issue would also arise for any X-pipeline candidate (also from targeted GRB/FRB followup searches), although we have not had any particularly interesting X-pipeline candidates yet.

@alexander.pace suggested opening this issue, but I am not entirely sure if this is a PyGRB/X-pipeline problem, or a GraceDB problem, or maybe more of a schema problem. If we had an interesting continuous-wave or stochastic candidate, for example, would people want to see that in GraceDB as well, and what would the solution be?
