I think having something that looks like an e-mail address is
a bad idea, it's too confusing.

Given that one of the aims of handles is (I think !) a more
compact, shorthand form of referring to someone, the  RIPE-DR222
idea sounds better to me - DR222 at rs.internic.net is longer than
my real name !
