Why not just make the IDs simple numbers? If I attempt to install blah
and there is more than one blah, just return suggestions like paludis
already does.

Which do you want:
* Package 234 - Blah - [description here]
* Package 123 - Blah - [description here]

Then the user after reviewing what the difference is they can install
by package number:
paludis --install --by-package-id 123
