[ Kona: strike as overspecification the text "(not inherits)" from the original resolution, which read "... whose definition contains (not inherits) the public static member id..." ]
Proposed resolution:
In the definition of std::use_facet<>(), replace the text in paragraph 1 which reads:
Get a reference to a facet of a locale.
with:
Requires: Facet is a facet class whose definition contains the public static member id as defined in [locale.facet].
It has been noticed by Esa Pulkkinen that the definition of "facet" is incomplete. In particular, a class derived from another facet, but which does not define a member id, cannot safely serve as the argument F to use_facet<F>(loc), because there is no guarantee that a reference to the facet instance stored in loc is safely convertible to F.
