But they sure have told us that they absolutely do not want URIs as
user identifiers.

Fickle. Would they make up their minds already? (I'm kinda confused, though. I could go with "all the users who gave me their webpage rather than an E-mail address, many years ago, were only doing it because they knew *I* cared about privacy, not because any of *them* truly valued it", but what about the reports in OpenID's early days about users referring others to their webpages, not just handing out E-mail addresses? Is this community nothing more than the product of outlier coincidences, a statistically insignificant critical mass formed from the demographics of "geeks who just happen to hear the wrong thing"? Are we like those alien conspiracy theorists, convinced of our right-ness simply because we've managed to find enough *other* people as crazy and stupid as we are who agree with us?)
