Then we'd have to overload both the structured clone algorithm and the == javascript operator. Even with 53 bits you can generate a new ID a million times a second for 285 years. So I really don't think we need to worry. And if anyone is still worrying then I'd say lets look at this in a hundred years or so, at which point I suspect that javascript has grown support for 64bit integers bringing us back to that half a million year limit :) / Jonas
