Thanks for the reminder. I was a bit worried about this having coded a lot of stuff in PHP. I now realise that so long as it is running on 64-bit hardware, PHP uses 64-bit ints, But is is an issue for people running PHP utilities on 32-bit hardware, who would have to either move or treat the IDs as strings.
