I understand that we're all familiar with virtualization and its benefits. 
However, in the Real World, those of us who run clouds often need to work with 
physical devices. I've proposed a blueprint and spec for a /hosts admin API 
resource that would return information on physical hosts. However, I don't 
believe that there's any way for us to actually identify a specific server (I'm 
actually hoping I'm mistaken about this, because that would make my life 
easier).

So, to get information about a specific host, you'd use /host/{id} — but what 
should go in the {id} slot?

We'd also like to include this data elsewhere; for example, in error messages, 
it might help to know the physical device on which a server is created.
