Uhm.. is that meaningful? Usually for location queries external
references are more useful than your address (e.g. your MAC moves with
your notebook, so what is the purpose of doing a query with it?)

Besides that there is one more reference we are starting using: RFID
addresses, which allow to pinpoint the exact position of the device.
