Comment (by snakefoot):

 Guess one should be able to change the inner workings of the API, so terms
 are identified using the taxonomy-id instead. Post-categories, link-
 categories and tags would use taxonomy-id as their id.

 This wouldn't break API's (one can always get a unique term using the
 taxonomy-id). Though it would change id's for all taxonomy-types (like ids
 changes with WP 2.3), and plugins will require a new API to aquire the
 actual term-id.

 But it will pretty much require a complete rewrite of all taxonomy code :)

 Guess I'm stuck with WP 2.0
