My point is that unlike any "open" identifier system if the DOI authority go in a direction we (or our decendants) don't like (become unreliable or ask for too much money) DOI actually own the identifies (they are trade marked).
What is trademarked? is doi:10.1111/129847398472 trademarked, or also 10.1111/129847398472?
Is it really legally prevented to set up your own resolver for 10.1111/129847398472? If so, I agree with Roger.
