I think I can probably leave this for now as using uids mapped through the namespace mapping mechanism. To do otherwise would, I think, require the possibility of encoding foreign IDs in IMA rules. Something to consider in the future, maybe, but I don't think I need to deal with that here. Possibly, we could make a general rule that "for any otherwise unmapped foreign ID, do X" sort of thing.
