I think we should, perhaps, leave reachability out? It seems like both a
locator and and id indicate some element of reachability (?). IE, if you
have a locator, and no ID, then there is nothing to reach, but if you
have an id, and no locator, there is no place to reach it at.

I don't see an easy way to separate these two concepts?
