Identities almost work except that a broker has no knowledge of when a remote peer goes away, so cannot manage context per identity. This makes it hard to make stateful nodes, e.g. which do authentication. Think SIP. I agree with Martin that such nodes work best in an administrative capacity, rather than as part of the scalable network.
