New description:

 If you give someone a Tahoe URL containing a Tahoe capability, and they
 are using a different grid (i.e., they are using a different introducer to
 meet storage servers), then they will get a graceless failure suggesting
 that the file they asked for doesn't exist.

 It might be good to include a "grid ID" in the URL.
