Are you *really* sure that you had a by-id link? How did it look like?

Sorry, no. I'm only aware that I had a by-path link. I was under the (mistaken) impression that either both or none were created for a device.

To get back the by-path link try this in 60-persistent-input.rules:

-SUBSYSTEMS=="usb|platform", IMPORT{program}="path_id %p"
+SUBSYSTEMS=="pci|usb|platform", IMPORT{program}="path_id %p"

and trigger again an event.

That does the trick nicely indeed. Thanks. This seems like it should be added, unless there's a downside I'm not seeing. Having more by-path links can't hurt, can it?
