Long IDs of objects can break when owners change, so the "do" could fail.
So could other techniques that rely on the long id.

Some time ago some folks talked about using a rugged id, that's insensitive
to changes in the group hierarchy.  If you'd like to see a resulting getprop
uRuggedID, let me know.
