The only major change that might occur is changing from a numeric
system of identifying messages to using message-ids.  I.e.  The
filenames would be the message-id of the message.  This would
allow links to not go stale, or change, if an archive is
re-created.

Umm, err, ooooo!  Please!  Pretty please!  Please sir!

FYI, message annotations are stored by using the message-id.  It
has the nice side-effect that if you re-create an archive, annotations
for messages are preserved.
