Those IDs look like UUIDs, which have a defined format. Is it possible it doesn't work because you changed one of the letters rather than generating a new UID? or was that attempted as well?

Upon rereading the page, it looks like you weren't aware of UUID/GUIDs. Those are "Universally Unique Identifiers" (or Globally). The use of them basically ensures that the tabs wouldn't get confused, even if you had a hundred that had the same name. For technical info about the standard, see Wikipedia's page. To generate your own, here is a quick UUID generator.

Right...that is why i said to change that identifer for a new tab. either way, since these differ from device-to-device, i dont know how you would write a patch since the filenames will never be the same
