Yeah, I think we would continue to use the anchors they way they are now by 
default, but then allow site admins to switch to the numeric form if they 
wanted.

I suppose the ideal situation is if the users could decide for themselves which 
way they want it on a per blog basis, *as well* as allow a site admin to force 
it a given way for the entire site when that makes sense.
