Given the trouble that the search engines have had in telling the difference between variant versions of a given page, it is good that the site's publisher will now be able to provide some hints. Instead of the Absolute Link proposal that Matt Cutts suggested, I would recommend using domain relative links in conjunction with a BASE HREF tag. The domain relative link structure is much better for testing pages on a developement or staging server and makes content migration easier. Adding a BASE HREF tag should allow the domain relative links to be consistently resolved to the correct domain. Interesting idea, Chris!
