Other then preferences, what else is keyed off of the bundle identifier?

So, just to be clear, would you generally consider it to be the case that a unique bundle identifier is intended to identify a unique application and not different versions of the same application?

Generally, that is the case. For example, Launch Services has mechanisms to locate an app by bundle identifier, and I believe AppleScript now has a way to address an app by bundle identifier; in such cases, the bundle identifier is regarded as more stable than the application name, and in general the preferred way to locate a particular application.
