"An identity is any subset of attributes of an individual which *uniquely*
identifies *that* individual *in* any *one *set of individuals. So usually
there is no such thing as “the identity”, but several of them."
Changed text to be more precise.
I think it's an improvement.
However the problem with this sort of a definition is that I have no idea how to
apply it to any standards effort that is useful.
In other words, a definition like this cannot be made in isolation. It needs to
be made in a context of other definitions and requirements, with enough of a
proposal to convince folks that it can be practical to implement and use.
