What if a post id number was assigned and it stayed with that post
regardless of what happens to it? In other words, every single post gets a
unique id number, period.

At work we are currently suffering the consequences of old "dead" objects
which had been deleted from our database but in subsequent uses, the "old,
dead" id was re-used. OMG, what a headache.
