I think.
Except these aren't all mutually exclusive. I tend to think C + D is probably ideal, in part because I'm not sure how we deal with different kinds of base URIs. Perhaps we ought to collect use cases to figure out whether we really need D? The one that prompted this discussion is DOIs, where a link URI gets constructed out of the id, using a base URI dx.doi.org.
