Does that really work, though? For example, are there things in Android that might assume that 100, in your above example, is the _ID of some instance? I've never felt comfortable that content:// Uri paths are truly opaque to the system. If anyone has any examples of a ContentProvider using unusual paths like content://yourdomain/your/data/path/0/100, I'd love to see them.
