Sorry, I'm way behind on this thread. I wish I weren't but there's
nothing I can do about that now...

Ben,
For my money, John Allsopp's idea to reuse rel="bookmark self" [1]
makes most sense. As well as being gorgeously consistent with
other existing microformats, it's also a completely graceful
addition to existing hCards.
thanks ;-)
There's a lot of goodness to reuse from other ufs, for sure.
Right, but there's also a lot of use to reusing things from the
present microformat (hCard).
vCard has a property called UID, which is defined as:
"""
Type purpose: To specify a value that represents a globally unique
identifier corresponding to the individual or resource associated
with the vCard.
"""
This is actually already in use by several large microformat
publisher (eventful.com) to between venues in their events and the
hCards for those events.
It's been proposed before that using URL and UID together is
sufficient for the things we're trying to solve here (I'm having
trouble finding a reference in the archives).
