Having the ability to separate the edit and alternate URI's is very important, particularly in cases where your public alternate URI is being served up by a content distribution network or your edit API is sitting behind a firewall.

It may be important to separate the edit and alternate URIs, but that's not a feature of the existing spec (AFAIK). Section 5.2 describes

Not so much a "feature" as it is simply left unspecified. the IRI returned in the Location header is used for editing the resource as per 5.2. The IRI returned in the [EMAIL PROTECTED] is used for public,read-only ...

(nit, and reminder to the editors:) HTTP doesn't use IRIs, it uses URIs. The location header will always contain a URI, not an IRI (unless the IRI happens to be a URI :-).
