Comment:

 If a shortcode is dependent on an ID, I'd really much rather see that
 handled via UI. There are any number of plugins that do that, whether they
 insert a plain shortcode or translate into an MCE view. Expecting users to
 consult an ID from another screen is terrible UX, and I don't think core
 needs to support that. If your userbase really needs to reference the ID,
 I'd first suggest rethinking why they need to be referring to the ID from
 the all posts list, and then if you still think you need it, add the
 column yourself. Custom columns are supported, at least :)
