Why would you be uncomfortable? I'm inclined to leave id and idref in  
as the constraints that are problematic aren't, afaict, part of the  
value space, but I certainly don't care enough to even push a little  
for it. Clearly, being able to handle them is actually a good reason  
to override the should not.
