Neuromancer RemoteReference Xuid Directory

RemoteReference which was part of the Neuromancer project was used as a 
way of locating Remote Objects as they move from machine to machine by 
utilising an Xuid, a class similar to Uuid, but with a higher likelihood 
of being unique and contained information that allowed the originating 
authority of an Object to be determined.

Xuid directory used a distributed hash.

Something like this would be very useful when utilised in a Global or 
internet domain for River.
