I for one don't really see the use. I know my node number off by heart (29008). And my use.perl id is 1100 (which pleases my binary heart). On the other hand, I would love to see some rewrite magic to allow...

... to take me to my homenode. But even then I don't think it matters much any more. Most reputable search engines these days know how to navigate dynamic sites "beyond the ?" so that is no longer an issue. All that's left is the convenience of hacking the URL. And the above rewrite would make that easier, but it's of no great importance.
