If they're non-deterministic, I don't see the benefit. In a link, I won't be able to freely target a para with an id that's been auto-generated (which will also likely have a different id, "next time"). > For example I have a method of my own to get a serial number for each > tiddler, this + an incremental number rendered into the output would give a > unique id. > Again, I don't see the benefit.
