Again, an ID is a specific reference which doesn't need to be nested 
inside another one. It's never occured to me to use IDs with an "object 
of object" syntax so I never ran into the problem, but apparently the 
parser doesn't like it.

All you need is: exists(bg id xxx). IDs can't refer to more than one 
object and (apparently) references to them won't nest.
