The patched changed the resolver and not the filter. Hence the markup
loaded into the cache is still the same, but the id presented at
render time is now a different.

sorry but this is also not correct. The markup of a page is composed
of potentially many markup files (fragments, panels, inheritance,
etc.). An id which is unique with markup file is not guranteed to be
unique in the page markup. That's why resolvers are using the
page.autoIndex to create a page unique id

sorry, but this is not true.

I very well understand your pain point, but lets fix the problem
properly and not introduce a bug with an enhancement.
