Just my tuppence worth for thisa debate about file ID's: its always a bad idea
to have two names for the same thing, cause they can get out of step.
Just look at all the trouble having Font names and Font ID's has caused.
And now it seems like Apple is going to make the same mistake all over again,
this time with Files.
I'm sure its to late to get them to change their minds on this one, so I will
have to content myself with saying "Told You So" later!
