IMHO, a build configure option would fit the best here. It does not make sense to show the ID when the kernel vendor does not have a service to download the related binaries. But it makes sense to show the buildid by default when the provider/distro has the service and want to use the ID when handling bug reports. We could always add boot/run time options when people really need it.
