  A user, or a use!  But I doubt that makes things any clearer.

I thought i= was just an identity. It could have any of these
properties:

1) is a valid domain when it is the same as d=
2) could be a sub-domain of d= and might not even exist
3) could look like an address/mailbox (with 1 & 2) but that mailbox
doesn't have to exist
  
So it should be treated opaquely as it could really represent anything.
