I think we'd really like to avoid creating a new scheme if we could
reuse an existing one. I know Arun was looking for an existing scheme,
but not sure if he looked at the 'urn' scheme.
Would it need to be urn:somename:uuid though? like urn:fileid:uuid?

What's wrong with urn:uuid, which is defined in RFC 4122 and already cited?
Also, Anne pointed out that we probably want fragment identifiers to
work in whatever URI is returned. Would that be possible if we use
'urn'? If I'm reading rfc2141 right, it seems to say it's undefined.
Fragment identifiers are independent of the URI scheme
(<http://greenbytes.de/tech/webdav/rfc3986.html#rfc.section.3.5.p.5>).
