Review comment:
I am not an expert with this part of the code, but the comment states:
`field IDs were not required for v1`
Could we end up with the same `field.name() + "_" + null` if the above
happens?
Maybe it would be better to add a random generated UUID instead to avoid any
chance of conflicts.
