I like dss:NameType a bit better than the SAML type:
  - In the DSS type the "Format" attribute is required
  - The DSS type omits the SAML type's superfluous "NameQualifier" attribute.
  - SAML hasn't defined an identifier for URIs, whereas we have.

However I don't feel strongly about this.  If no-one else has an opinion, 
I'll change it this weekend.
