> As discussed on the list (at [0]) the ClusterView.getId() is currently 
> unspecific about whether the id is stable/persistent or not. The current 
> implementation of it is not stable and returns a new id with every changing 
> cluster view. Without assumptions on the underlying implementation details it 
> is not trivial to provide a stable id. This contrasts to the slingId of an 
> InstanceDescription - which is guaranteed to be stable. A cluster can reshape 
> and join another cluster, hence a cluster id is not trivial to be stable.
> The suggestion is to clarify the unstable nature of that id in its javadoc 
> and marking it as deprecated - since there is no use for an unstable id 
> really.
