What's the referent of "this" Dave?

My understanding of xml:id is that it does indeed fullfill the need  
to identify and reference document fragments, in a general and  
consistent way.

But in any case, we need it to be able to support one of our use  
cases, which I think implies at minimum that ids must be unique  
across all the namespaces.

Might be good to consider adding xml:id in the future though.
