I think he meant adapting, and I think he is referring to what I
wrote in the message upthread to explain why "file ID" would not
help.

It seems to me, from reading the remainder of your message, that it
is also becoming clear to you that "file ID" would not help and your
conceptual thing was merely a hand-waving that was dubious how it
could be made into a concrete working design?  Hopefully we can
converge on a workable design that does not involve "file ID", and
that would be a good outcome.
