identifier in email like format

Instead of identifying myself with:
http://example.net/john-doe

I would prefer:
john-doe@example.net

We could have a standard approach where identifier@domain translates to http://domain/identifier

I think it would give OpenID more human friendly feel than using URL format.

This is already being worked on through the WebFinger project, and was previously attempted with the EAUT (Email-Address to URL Translation) project.
