Hmm, for web forms this has been overcomplicated for the past decade...without needing to worry about security even.
In a trusted world, you still need to worry about order of operations, resource exhaustion, and redundant resiliency...as these are forms of addl complexity perhaps we should get rid of the internet itself...
Distributed systems localize all complexity and don't suffer the same sorts of security issues... The answer to "who is this" is still a problem if only we could program based upon how they behave versus who they are...
In a world where components themselves acted independently of their masters intentions, you might be able to make this work. Computers would have to act very differently, almost self computing systems.
Perhaps what I'm describing is a world run by robots, and so in the absence of proof they would treat us better than we do ourselves, perhaps a bit of consistent pain is worthwhile.
