I'll say, I don't want to adopt weird urls.

In CMF, I can identify content by cataloged metadata without ids.
I like this approach very much.

Hmm, I think most asian languages have same problem, chinese, korean,
japanese and so on ;-).

This is very disadvantage, so there is "romaji" in Japan.
"romaji" is written by alphabet and it represents japanese reading.
My name "Yusei" is written by romaji, not true notation.

Likewise, I can name contents id as romaji or English word, but it is
annoying things for me, especially in Wikis.

Thank you.
