Would be nice to transfer identity to a new domain but leave the server the same, like we typically do with email.

Not understanding your claim...

How can I "transfer identity" to a new domain in email?

I can't move myusername@gmail.com to @outlook.com, nor can I move myusername@someisp.com to myusername@anotherisp.com .

Well, with email you can a) forward from one address to another b) set up an auto-reply (I've moved), c) copy your message history via imap/maildir/mbox-files. Ditto for address book(s).
