+1 on not bumping the namespace when the changes are not incompatible. There
are already some clients confusingly stuck in urn:xmpp:mam:1 era.

+1 on adding ID-based queries. Some backends querying remote databases might not
be able to query by anything other than ID, but as this would break compat with
urn:xmpp:mam:2, it probably makes sense to have that as a separate XEP. (I'm
thinking of situations with transports querying chat systems for the history,
but I don't have anything specific to propose.)
