I think we are diluting the discussion about the identifiers here. 
Because if the user wants to indicate tracking preferences, they can 
already do so with the DNT-header. (I still think the UX for that 
token needs major improvement). No need to re-invent that, perhaps 
just start using it. (And DNT:0 (allows tracking) in private mode is 
an interesting combination)

I think we should stick to the ID and purpose discussion. Because 
IMHO and AIAL, this will serve data protection/self determination 
the most. (Yes I deliberately did not use "privacy").
