No, sorry, pre-coffee abiguous grammar, I wasn't correcting you, I meant:

But it was also a pretty pointless comment. Sorry.

Is that different from what I said? /* This identifier can be used as a unique,

Plugin types should be identified by file and label rather than
by index or plugin name, which may be changed in new plugin
versions. Labels must not contain white-space characters. */
To me this makes it pretty plain that filename and label is at
least intended to be a valid unique ID within your filesystem,
and in practice I'd expect it to be an effective id for the
plugin anywhere in the world.
I think it should be: local filenames are unique, and labels are
required to be unique in the file.
