  This is specially interesting and it would be important to make it right.
  
  One of the features we lose in Wayland is that we know where to place each \
component. because of this number being 0 the primary screen, where the important \
components go. In Wayland there's not a concept of a primary screen and using \
multiscreen there is basically gambling. One thing we discussed with @mart at some \
point is to use the screen name to identify the configuration.  
  That's another use-case for the API.
  That said, I think that it would be just better to slowly deprecate the integer id.
