>From a "nice paths/URLs" content model perspective, I would give them
readable names. In this example using the description for example,
using :nameHint = description.

/orders/{orderID} - the order
/orders/{orderID}/items - a sling:OrderableFolder
/orders/{orderID}/items/widget
/orders/{orderID}/items/bar
/orders/{orderID}/items/bar_1

:nameHint will ensure a unique name in case of duplicates. Also using
shorter names like "items" instead of "lineItems" has its advantages
(shorter URLs, more easily readable, etc.).

Just my 2 cents...
