Currently, the only way to identify a site from the [associated accounts route][2] is by its **name**. This is pretty error-prone and useless if you are trying to do something more than just **display** the associated sites, like, for example, displaying the user's profile on that site.

Also, say I cached all the sites using the `/sites` method (which, btw, needs a way to get **all** the sites for caching purposes so I don't have to make more than one call). The only way to map an associated site to one in my cache is, again, **by its name**, which is, well, horrible.

Because of this, supplying the endpoint of the site (it can even replace the name if you ask me) is pretty necessary.

I understand that I can "just use 1.0", but that's not a nice / correct solution either.
