Minor point, but you don't actually need a hierarchical external ID to do this. The external id is associated with the file, not part of it, and so deleting the file doesn't mean that the external id is or has to be deleted. So, entirely possible for the external id to be retained by the system, but reassigned to a 'graceful fallback' state. > -1 on assigning Handles to bitstreams in 'out of the box' config.
