Subject: [Id-event] Please add "acct" as a subject identifier type

Per the discussion at the working group meeting in Bangkok, please add "acct" as a subject identifier type in draft-ietf-secevent-subject-identifiers.  Its value would be an RFC 7565<https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc7565> value without the "acct:" prefix.

This is important for identifying user accounts that are not e-mail addresses.  For instance, I'm "selfissued" at Twitter.  This could be represented as:
              "acct": "[email-masked]"

I'd suggest the description "An account identified with the specified RFC 7565 account identifier, omitting the "acct:" prefix".

Note that an acct identifier is explicitly not an e-mail address.

                                                       Thanks,
                                                       -- Mike
