Comment (by jhodgdon):

 If you don't want to put this into Core, then in my opinion, someone needs
 to do a lot of Codex editing. There are a ton of functions and procedures
 that involve knowing the ID numbers for posts, pages, etc. Particularly
 for theme development. We'll need to link to this plugin, and hope the
 author continues to maintain it.

 I'd prefer to be able to say something like "Go to the Advanced tab of the
 Settings pages, and check the Show IDs checkbox", rather than relying on
 this particular plugin to be available. I understand that most people
 don't need to see IDs, but I think there are enough reasons for needing
 IDs that it merits having the ability to turn them on in core, without
 searching for this plugin and relying on its continued existence. Hovering
 over links to try to find the ID number in the URL is REALLY ANNOYING.
