Dave,

So, I feel like I may be a day late and a dollar short each time I ask
a question.  Like above.  So I just couldn't see where this base msg_id
addition was taking place...  And about the time I was trying to figure
it out, this commit happened:

    author Dave Barach <d...@barachs.net> 2017-01-25 16:32:08 -0500
    commit 2d6b2d6d1bbb130921ec525a1cc6e88f42717c79 (patch)

    Repair plugin binary API message numbering
    Change-Id: I422a3f168bd483e011cfaf54af022cb79b78db02
    Signed-off-by: Dave Barach <d...@barachs.net>

Which pretty much answers my question.

Are my questions the forcing function here? :-)
Or am I just on the bleeding edge?
