Mostly because it points out the way public keys might be weak (The given example with date of birth and characters) even when a unique attribute like email exists. Also, using bio-metric based unique attributes for the public string intrigued me. The presentation explains nicely how the error tolerance with biometrics for IBE would work.

Hmm. Will take a look in the morning, but gotta admit I am not a fan of IBE.
