Why " give things of interest (the equivalent of your objects in your
domain model or your table rows in your physical data model) visible
identity?"    That seems to violate the principle of information
hiding that has been around since before OO.  It seems to be simply a
Bad Idea to expose internal details in a world where slimeballs have
proliferated  who would love to subvert your website for fun and/or
profit.  Why not hide them behind a "controller URI" that accepts
requests and gives them a going over with the polygraph and
protocoscope, then routes them to whereever the system thinks they
should be routed at this moment?
