Hi Sven, the change introduces a theoretical risk of duplicate ids. I don't know how likely it is and I know we have no tests for it. But Filters are created per markup file and modify the markup upon loading, prior to caching. Which also means that the Page is not available. In case of inheritance it might not even be the same Page. To be absolutely sure the ID is page-unique, it gets update in the Resolvers where the Page instance is available.
The root cause is that we don't validate if the ID has been updated already and avoid subsequent updates. We have no means to do that check. A number at the end of the ID would not be sufficient. May be a Component's flag bit can be used for that purpose. I understand the problem in your application, but users will have an extremly hard time to identify the issue if it occurs. I'm not sure it's worth it. May be the approach outlined above solved your problem as well, but in a safe manner.
