I dunno.  How do we know who brian.e.carpenter@xxxxxxxxx is?  I can
tell you from experience that a lot of people think they are
john.levine@xxxxxxxxx, and all but one of them are mistaken.

PS: Now that I think about it, you can already put in a personal URL
in rfc2xml, so if someone wants to use an ORCID URL, they can do so
right now.
