Isn't .leoID.txt Windows specific? I recall leo on Windows showing up
a small dialog at first startup.
I'm on Linux and the values of t attribute of v tags all follow this
pattern:

<v t="USERNAME.TIMESTAMP">

Here USERNAME is the name of the user I'm logged with. The one that is
returned by the `whoami` command, the one that can can also be seen
when typing just `id`. This username is something I would like to not
see in leo outlines.

Same for <t tx="...

I don't dislike the t and tx attributes, I dislike their values, which
contain the explicit user name.
I don't look to eliminate these tag attributes from the leo outline,
I'd like them to contain some less obvious values instead, some
checksums perhaps, which would also guarantee uniqueness, if that's
their purpose.
