    Are Window ID's unique across multiple connections to the same server?

I'm not clear on exactly what you're asking.  Once a client has terminated
and all of it's resources have been destroyed, a subsequent client can
connect and be given the same resource id space to use.  So no, resource
ids are not unique for all time.  While a client is connected, no other
client will be given the same resource id space, but other clients can
certainly reference the resource ids of that client.
