Hi there - I'm also writing an app that writes Ardour session files and
I asked this question myself, a few weeks ago.  If I understood the
answer correctly, I don't think there's any significance at all to the
ID numbers.  Each ID needs to be unique but, apart from that, you just
need to increment them in whatever order you create your objects.
If there seemed to be a pattern at work, it's just a happy coincidence
due to the objects being created in a 'patterned' order.

Hope that helps,


John
