Yes, Dan Chudnov (they guy behind COinS) actually started a  
conversation about an identifier microformat on here several months ago:

   http://microformats.org/discuss/mail/microformats-discuss/2005- 
November/002106.html

I agree, an identifier microformat could be used for ISBNs, ISSNs,  
DOIs, UPCs, etc. How about we start a page for this on the wiki? RFC  
4452 makes would mesh nicely with a decent identifier microformat.

Let's get this going.
