Richard,
I think we are already doing that, albeit focused on credentials following the 18013-5 standard. From Section 1.1 of the report (my highlighting):
ISO/IEC designed 18013-5 to bring digitally secure driving licenses to mobile devices. Implementers of ISO/IEC 18013-5 will not be limited to public identity
issuing authorities, such as motor vehicle administrators.
Other entities, public and private, may choose to utilize this standard for issuing mobile identities for specific ecosystem use cases (e.g. national agencies, colleges and universities, private commercial organizations such as retail and healthcare, etc.)
Even though such identities (i.e. compliant with the ISO/IEC 18013-5 standard and issued by non-driver’s license issuers) may not be able to interoperate within an mDL ecosystem,
the security and privacy considerations of these identities are within the scope of this report.
Thanks,

I could be having an epiphany or I could just be rather dumb … but here goes.
The paper you referred us to Tom has all the attributes [general usage] of the mDL but a totally different purpose. Could we / should we therefore take a broader perspective on 18013-5 and rather than focus on the mDL
per se (though it is a good subject for thinking around) think more of a Personal Identification Digital Document (PIDD) or potentially (though privacy risks abound) a PIDD ‘Store’, i.e. the common PII with other meta-data specific to a particular use,
e.g. mDL, Cert of Vaccination … or of any other worthy attribute?
There is nothing about an mDL which is so special, is there? I get the point that as a focus for a specific instantiation it is valuable, but a slant in one’s
perspective opens up the basic tool for many parallel purposes, as the referenced paper suggests.
Does this make any sense?

I suspect that the non-DL applications will eventually be larger than the DL use cases.
Be the change you want to see in the world
