If we were to rework the naming, something like ...
1) parent 1: classid 1:2
2) parent 1:2 classid 1:2:5
3) parent 1:2:5 classid 1:2:5:8
... would make more sense.
The numbering scheme currently in place makes very little sense and is
quite wasteful of the number-space it uses (not that it matters much to
most people).
If the above were used, 'parent' would become quite unnecessary of course.
