Mick, During this week's IA2 call you indicated that IAccIdentity would be 
helpful to NVDA.

IAccIdentity has one method, GetIdentityString.  See 
http://msdn2.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms696153.aspx.  It takes a 
childID and returns a unique ID string. 

If I understand it correctly, when an event arrives (providing hwnd, 
objectID, and childID) you first get the accessible object using 
AccessibleObjectFromEvent, QI it for IAccIdentity, then call 
IAccIdentityString::GetIdentityString passing in the childID and getting 
back an ID string.

Please explain how this ID is used (or would be used) by NVDA and also how 
it compares to IA2::unqiueID.
