Paul,
I really don't see including InChI's in plain sight as a problem. On our
lab wiki we just put a Tags section at the bottom of every experiment page
and dump the InChI's of the relevant chemicals.
For blogs on Chemical Blogspace, Egon has described an even more useful way
to tag them. Again there, they have to appear in plain sight.
