</span>In a situation like that (indeed in any situation) you would be expected to provide an organism-friendly name at one of the three (IIRC) plugin points in the metadata.<br>

The prime motivation with that line is to provide something better than line noise to the end user in the case that the SP doesn't have any provided information. Our estimation is that a DNS name is more available to a user than an URN disguised an URL.<br>
