If you call application.createComponent() to create a component, you are responsible for assigning an ID to the component. (Hopefully you're not using "new <Component>()" to create a component. If you did, you'd still be responsible for creating the component, but you might also introduce other issues. Maybe it doesn't matter, though -- I don't see anything special in the createComponent() code).
