create the best identifier for things seems a bit of a strange
notion to me, but is this based on that there is only (or rather,
that you're trying to create) one identifier for any one thing?
RDF is fine with one 'thing' having multiple identifiers, it just hands
the problem up a level to the application to deal with.
For example, the owl:sameAs predicate is used to express that the
subject and object are the same 'thing'. Then the application can infer
that if a owl:sameAs b, and a
Rob is correct on all points.
Namespace URIs can, in some cases, be overloaded to function as schema
identifiers. But they absolutely can't be used blindly in this way
for arbitrary formats -- there are all kinds of potential gotchas.
That being so, I think it is wiser and more explicit _always_

So, if you're interested in participating in this, let me know.
