Well,
_personally_ i don't care. I simply pick an unused number and use it. But
what, if two developers choose the same number and distribute their apps
separately? If it's a parsing issue, then the numbers must not go into
kdebug.areas but IMHO at least it would be nice to have an (unparsed)
registry then where i can look for numbers beeing shure these are not used
by other apps (An probably somebody who maintains this).

Ciao
