and I know you are not alone !!

Our issue is trying to produce an API that will allow other people to
write code for L3 packages that will plug in to libSBML. We cant
guarantee that people writing this code will be existing libSBML users.
Thus we need libSBML to reflect the SBML specification as closely as
possible.

But we do know that using getId on SBase objects is a common usage. Once
we have a prototype of the API (end of Sept) we will revisit the issue :-)

Thanks

Sarah
