One //possible hitch//: according to the W3C, URIs are supposed to be opaque <http://www.w3.org/TR/webarch/#uri-opacity>. If you're using it as an identifier, then it's a layer violation to //also// require the server to provide data to the client via the URI.
I haven't studied your proposal closely enough to know if there's really a problem here, and if there is, if it's worth avoiding. There's no sense in overcomplicating things to satisfy some W3C orthodoxy here, but I know that there are //some// cases where URI parsing causes tighter coupling than necessary, so I figured I'd comment.
