Ah, I was mostly talking about what clients are doing. Sorry for the confusion.  I wasn't talking about a server, I was talking about infrastructure required to do CRUD on a scenegraph anywhere on the net.(whether it's peer to peer or client server doesn't matter--I'm not concerned with server implementations).  Ids are useful for global identity, when cooperating servers share clients.  I'm not talking about personal identity, I'm talking about node identity.
