No, but dix does support transporting more than one claim and does
support claims that are not identifiers.
I don't view doing so as a requirement.

I use the terms claim, identity, subject and relying party as they are used in
the Laws of Identity paper.
An identifier is a claim that is alegidly unique; email addresses are
viewed by some as identifiers. Email addresses *are* the identifier
within the namespace of amazon.com identifiers as an example.
