Imagine having a alias for every single node on Drupal.org.

20 000 records loaded into memory all the time. And caching them will 
help, but sooner or later
it's going to take up obscene amounts of memory.

This would be another way of providing url's for nodes, only where they 
are needed (ie: when linking to the node).
A similar addition could be made to user_load to handle profiles.
