The other way is just to have a URI and mandate that the URI must be

As I mentioned in an off-list reply to some people, the tag: scheme
is also worth consideration. See RFC 4151 which says:

Tag URIs (also known as "tags") are designed to be unique
across space and time while being tractable to humans.

Certainly more tractable than UUIDs.
