Martin is correct, IMHO. A URI (or GUID, for that matter) identifies *one* resource. We don't get to change that. OTOH, I don't think it will happen unless there is a commonly seen need for it to happen, so it seems like a non-issue.
After reading Tim's response, it's obvious I totally misread this exchange. Graham is right.
