Yes, changes are possible, and each time some have occured we have made sure that existing code will either run in compatibility mode (with the appropriate deprectation logs) or fail hard by explaining what's happening.

The problem here is that the semantics of an existing method changes, and existing code will still compile and run, but with the wrong data. Hence these two steps.

It would probably be easier for everyone if getId() just went away never to be seen again. Just pick some other name that doesn't conflict. That is why I suggested getLocalName() and getFullName(). Or whatever.
