The id of an MApplicationElement should not have to be unique. However, the
'xmi:id' attribute within the e4xmi file must be unique.?

the e4 startup to enforce this. I'm happy to put together a patch (I'm
certainly going to run with it locally!). This policy can be relaxed at a
later point as situations arise.
I have opened bug 301155 to provide a warning/regenerate one.
