Me too!  I would even suggest that all I-D authors, at the very least, 
should need to register with the IETF to submit documents.  Optional 
@ietf.org offered.

If there are other purposes for ORCID, then what are those?  These are 
things the IETF can do in general to improve its electronic 
participant and network of world wide contributors.

The idea is great.  By why use ORCID?  Why not Facebook? linked-in? 
etc. So many issues when its 3rd party.  While ORCID does offer an API 
(another conflict issue when API changes), I think the IETF should 
offer its own registry database of contributors.
