Specifying identifier recycling

[John Panzer]

At some point, the weak link will be humans trying to disambiguate 
http://joe.example.org/ from http://joe.example.org/2 (or 
http://joe.example.org/#2).  I don't think there's a big difference 
between the two in that context, and I don't think that OID2 needs to 
solve this more deeply than allowing unique-URL.  But would this be an 
additional requirement placed on OPs?

   (Query:  I assume a 302 redirect from http://joe.example.org to 
http://joe.example.org/2 will work?)

Has there been a discussion about an extension to map to/from i-numbers 
via AX?  If there were a generic attribute you could stuff an i-number 
or a hash of an internal ID in there to help solve the disambiguation 
problem.  Alternatively it'd be nice to have a way to ask when the 
account was created, if the OP is amenable.
