Oh, I realize I wasn't clear.  I wasn't asking what advantages an 
individual might find in chosing # vs. /, which is what I think you're 
explaining.  I was asking whether there were deep architectural reasons 
why the TAG would discourage this usage of / if someone should find it 
useful.  For one thing, the # identifiers really aren't well grounded 
unless there's a document/representation, I think.  The / forms seem to 
have clearer grounding in the URI space even before someone deploys actual 

representations (though we all agree that deploying retrievable 
representations is desirable in any case.)

I think that more or less answers my question, and I agree with the 
answer.  If there's any remaining 
confusion we can discuss in Edinburgh.   Many thanks.
