"Hop on your time machine and imagine yourself transported to the future 50 years from now. A new generation of bike geeks are collecting vintage lightweights and Elroy is in possession of a mystery frame. The workmanship is obvious but the paint is rough and there are no decals. How is he going to identify the frame? I am not talking about serial numbers though, I am thinking more along the lines of stamped logos or even diamond vent holes. Whatever... Maybe something that is even a secret :)"

I spend the money to have the bottom bracket, crown, and other parts engraved with my name so that if one of my frames gets repainted but not redecaled, it is still distinctly identifiable as one of mine.
