Well, I suspect that for people to know that this is even an option,
you will have to tell them about it (at which point you could tell
them whatever you want to use) or they will look at the source, at
which point they will see whatever is in use.
Or you can set up user stylesheets that will tell you
automatically. For example, try this one in either Opera or a
Gecko-based browser:
body[id]:before {content: "Site signature: #" attr(id);
display: block; border: 3px double red; background: yellow;
text-align: center; padding: 0.25em; margin-bottom: 0.5em;}
Obviously the styles in question could be made more
subtle/pleasing/whatever, and will likely get obscured by positioned
elements at the top of the page. In any case, that rule makes it
possible to discover signatures without having to look at the source
of every site one visits.
That rule also has a fascinating effect when you actually do view
source (on any page) in Mozilla...
The bigger problems would be for sites that begin with a digit, but
I'm not one of them, so I'll let them worry about that ;-)
Yes, some sort of prefix would be needed, and I think "ip" is the
natural choice: #ip127-0-0-1.
