Names name something; identifiers identify something,
abstract or real.

What are the cases and uses, and don't they 
depend on overloading the term, URI?  If all 
they are is a unique string, then they should 
be named Uniform Unique Strings.

Aagh.. here comes the rathole again.

Hmmm. Can't you think about cases in which URIs are used but don't 
necessarily point to a resource? ;)
