about general identity.

So should it be a package level attribute or a publisher level one?
Is it sort of a higher level in the hierarchy than publisher? One
entity may have many publishers containing many packages? (It seems
like it's what "publisher" should mean, given more typical English
usage, but I think we've gone too far down the path of publisher having
a more specialized subset meaning for pkg.)

What should the attribute be for pkg://solaris/driver/graphics/nvidia -
Oracle or Nvidia?

Oracle's the one that "published" the package.

So arguably, Oracle.
