        Any reason to not make ref-id a URI reference?

It could be a URI reference if you can specify the specific reference element. Are you thinking about using it to reference a detached signature?

        An empty URI reference is a reference to the current base URI, so
        the Algorithm attribute's value here isn't really an empty string.

Thanks. Then we would have to define a URI to indicate no canonicalization.
