Re: [w3c/browser-payment-api] Identifiers or Locators (#150)

@dret,

My personal view is that:

 * the primary computation on these identifiers will be equivalence testing. 
 * it is useful to ALSO be able to dereference them. I have tried to make the case for using URIs and dereferencing them to get the relevant payment method specification. I have not converted many people.

@adrianba and perhaps others have cited the risk of high-volume (and likely unnecessary) dereferencing.

I have also started to write up some payment method identifier design notes:
