Has there been any discussion of how one might represent a git object id as a urn or uri?

It's clear that 'git:' is registered with IANA as a URI prefix for locations of git repos.

I was wondering if there was any existing use of something like:

'gitoid:${type}:${hash type}:${hash of git object}' ?

So for example:

gitoid:blob:sha1:261eeb9e9f8b2b4b0d119366dda99c6fd7d35c64

which could be used to communicate generic git object ids.
