Whatever do you mean? They become values of nodes, possibly in their own
nodes that are linked to parent nodes.  The real issue in going from pointy
brackets to the in-memory (or abstract model) is that the pointy stuff is
serialized and the full model is interconnected and not easy to serialize.
IDs are used partly to try to allow serialization.  A display and UI
likewise have trouble portraying the multi-dimensional nature of the topic
map.  I don't see any problem with keeping hold of the URIs.
