   > Except that, URI has at least some structure :) compared to String, with 
Strings, we would still need to invent some convention (e.g. prefixing) so that 
ids from different sources remain unique (i.e. I should not probably provide 
just "Tree.openIcon", that's likely to clash, but "something.Tree.openIcon" ... 
which is quite equivalent to an URL/URI scheme + host / path).
   
   That's an interesting point about specificity.  What would the path levels 
mean? I've said before that I'd wished NetBeans had a logical icon spec, 
something akin to xdg icon spec 
https://specifications.freedesktop.org/icon-naming-spec/icon-naming-spec-latest.html#guidelines
  Here the level of specificity has meaning, and the most specific option found 
will be used, by removing the lower level and looking again.  eg. Tree.openIcon 
and Tree.openIcon.something would make sense.
