That sounds ok to me... but
1. The link does not use a child_of actually, but if that's your
intention, ok
2. When you click on the *link* Claims because it uses a domain with a
child_of. But what for the *one2many fields*, are you going to replace
them all by a fields.function using a child_of instead of a = ?
Example: the one2many displaying the claims in the history tab of
Camptocamp Group won't display the claims from other employees while the
link will. If you need to create a link with a 'child_of' because you
can't rely on the one2many fields, that's a pity.

Ok, in theory that's sound ok (didn't check if it works really like
that). But that right for the delivery orders, not the claims for
instance. And again, your case gently ignore the truth: yes, the search
can be customized to search on child_of, as per the the links. But the
one2many linked with the partner_id of the delivery won't be able to
display the correct information.
