Once there is a programatic method of moving the identity data, it  
could be much richer then what people would type into a form. Eg. my  
list of favorite books, movies. This week I met someone that wanted  
to move virtual model data so that the user could tell a clothing  
store their dimensions etc.

This also leads into moving the identity data from a site that might  
generate to storage for later use.
