Would we actually gain anything by using ints like that? While I love bit operations (specially on C/C++), I'm not sure It would benefit us over a plain string of ints. I don't see a performance issue there, and Xml files would be much harder to inspect manually and look at ID relationships.

I do loathe the "/" concatenator though. Perhaps a dash or a dot?

EDIT: Yes, better the ClientState is cleaned first; less collections to update. I was tempted to start doing it today, but then the branch would get insane so I refrained myself.
