It would be nice to have an engine version of revRuggedID, or for that 
function definition to just be moved from revbackscriptlibrary to 
revcommonlibrary, since the latter is copied into every standalone so 
everyone would have it everywhere.

In fact, since both of those libraries are now text-only stacks, anyone 
sufficiently motivated could make the move and submit a pull request in 
github.
