It might be useful to look at another open source effort to empower users. One point where the description at the following URL seems to diverge from recent discussion here is its explicit support for multiple identities.

Yeah, Higgins is good stuff (tm).

I'm in favor of multiple identities... in the sense that an identity can have multiple identifiers, which I think is technically what Higgins supports, and what I think dmd0 supports. I confess I don't know what format a Higgins identifier is, but I imagine it's just a string, with an associated known type. In dmd0 I specced it as a URL and then went into detail about how a URL based identifier scheme
would work. I'm sure other schemes could be made to work too.

One never knows what an announcement of support such as that from IBM and Novell might mean for the project.

Not quite sure what that statement means. Project being DIX? For sure if if the Higgins team are interested in DIX I should think that to be a positive thing.
