Yes, I completely agree with this, which is why I think it *has* to be
no problem that both info:uris and http uris can co-exist.
I'm not entirely sure of the use case of identifiers that cannot be
derefenced, I mean, I'm sure they exist (driver's license numbers,
might be an example), but I don't see anything in the current info:uri
registry wouldn't necessarily be better served with an HTTP uri.
