public interface DisplayIdentity
extends LocalizableMessage

Provides access to the essential displayable charactistics about the identity of an object. An object's identity is composed of it's type and an identifier. The identifier will typically distinguish the object from other objects of the same type. The identifier is not necessarily unique. The DisplayableIdentity is itself a LocalizableMessage therefore allowing it to be used in messages and other locale sensitive contexts.
