You agree that it's a different problem right?
The common part is that one might have a similar set of external (physical)
signals.
Should Dave bring his printer to the IETF network, and they happen to
discovery each other via privacy-enhanced dnssd magic (cf: Arthur Clark's
definition of magic), then it would be good that they can prove that it's
really them.
