As a host author, I like that I can account for your voices by REAL voice
IDs. :)  Besides that, don't you have an array of voice structs or something
similar in EVERY plugin?  Just return me your key.  They don't have to be
sequential or even small, just positive (or if you prefer, non-zero).

In the end, it makes your life easy, too, since your key is my key - you
don't need to hash or map anything.
