Now strictly speaking, this only limits scope to identifiers that are indexical as opposed to rendering them meaningless but I think that was the sense of it. Nöth <https://www.google.com/search?tbo=p&tbm=bks&q=inauthor:%22Winfried+N%C3%B6th%22> proposed a trichotemy of identifiers as follows * Identity, the signifier is the signified (e.g. data: URI) * Indexical, the signifier is related to the signified by a systematic relationship, (e.g. ni URIs, SHA256Data), PGP fingerprints etc.) * Names, the signifier is the related to the signified by a purely conventional relationship, (e.g. example.com to its owner) There is a big difference between attempting to manage indexical signifiers and names. Especially when the people trying to do so refuse to read any of the literature on semiotics. Names are problematic because the only way that a conventional relationship can be implemented is through some sort of registration infrastructure and we already have one of those and the industry that manages it has a marketcap in the tens of billions. Identifiers do lead to tractable solutions. But, this proposal looks a bit unfocused for IRTF consideration, an IETF WG? Really? I wrote this for the ename workshop and I think it shows that some of the goals stated can be solved: http://www.prismproof.org/Documents/draft-hallambaker-sin.html But this is what my names look like: alice@example.com.mm--mb2gk-6duf5-ygyyl-jny5e-rwshz https://mb2gk-6duf5-ygyyl-jny5e-rwshz.example.com/ They are both legal addresses fully compliant with the DNS etc specs. The first won't resolve on the regular DNS, the second does but the embedded security properties will only be enforced if the resolver understands the mm-- prefix. I can use these names to achieve content based routing of both static and dynamic data. In the first case, the identifier is the fingerprint of the content itself, in the second, the identifier is the fingerprint of a key signing the content.
