That's an increasingly small part of the population. For myself, I'd
welcome one, both for domestic and EU travel. I don't have a driving
license, and having to carry the passport around for UK air travel is
annoying- a credit card sized ID card in the wallet would be better- all
the better for EU travel too. Providing it wasn't obligatory to carry it
around, or to actually _have_ one (just like you do't have to have a
passport)- I don't think most sane people would be bothered.
