I think that, in practice, it may not be clear when to use which identifier in the model described in the [previous comment](https://github.com/w3c/dpub-pwp-loc/issues/28#issuecomment-211863327). What about saying instead:\r\n\r\nPWP has the following identifiers/locators:\r\n\r\n1. A set of _identifiers_ (with possibly a label assigned to each identifier to describe what it is for and who is the authority to assign them)\r\n2. A state independent locator (can we call this a 'canonical locator'?)\r\n3. State specific locators of a particular copy (ie, a locator to my copy in zip, and a separate locator to the unpacked version on my server)\r\n\r\nThe rule being that the entries in (1) SHOULD be changed only by the respective authorities, and they MUST be part of the PWP manifest.\r\n\r\nThis is intentionally fuzzy as for the details of the identifiers, mainly on the access control, but maybe that is a reasonable approach for a technical specification that is not supposed to control policy. Maybe a final specification would have to assign some more metadata to each identifier, but we can leave that for now.\r\n\r\nWDYT?\r\n"}}
