=1 for collecting ideas.

But as for xml:id, I don't think it can be used in XLIFF as its value requires to be unique per XML document.

In the inline content:

- the identifier of a code: needs to be the same in the source and target
- the identifier of an element storing original data: should probably be repeatable for each unit, and if not for each "<file>".

Even outside inline content:

- the identifier of a unit: Needs to be repeatable per "<file>" I.e. tools that would group several XLIFF "<file>" in one document cannot change the id values to ensure they are unique.

Or am I missing something in xml:id?
