See bug 2044 and bug 2045 for full description of the issue which gave
rise to this one.  

When the Working Group discussed R-181 in May 2005 (North Carolina
ftf), we instructed the editors "to correct validation rules for 
identity contraints to actually refer to identity."

It's not clear to me, at the time I add this record, whether the 
instruction applies only to 1.1 or also to 1.0.   Since equality
and identity are the same in 1.0 but not in 1.1, I suspect there may
be a need for two slightly different proposals.  For now, though,
I am concerned with fixes to the 1.1 text, so I'm entering this as
a 1.1 issue.  We can make a separate 1.0 issue if we wish, or change
this to apply to 1.0 (which means it will implicitly also apply
to 1.1).
