Yeah, you're right -- fixed UUIDs for user modifiable items should be used with care -- we do use it for the Sidebar collection, and perhaps that's ok.

How about using a repository Path to the Sidebar instead ?

Mogen and I considered this, but it wasn't practical because dump and load stores UUIDs. We'd have to add another address mechanism besides UUIDs, e.g. paths, which is a fair amount of work and complication.

Yes, but it would solve the problem of matching different items (different UUIDs) against a well-known item normally existing is each repository, such as //System/UI/Sidebar. The same would apply for something like
//System/Security/MasterPassword.
