Well a 'solution' might do that, but I don't see one happening in our lifetimes. Any separation will require a mapping infrastructure to dynamically bind the values back together. Such a mapping infrastructure will have all of the scaling concerns of DNS, plus the constraint that its convergence times are extremely short. There is no well-known technology for running a global multi-master, cross trust boundary, database, with appropriate caching for scale, and convergence times that are useful for application failover. If one exists, maybe the end system stacks can be rebuilt to use it within a decade ...
