intersection logging is interesting too :). I'm neither for or against
the core patch - I haven't read it myself at this stage to comment.

Internals leak, and ui can drive internals - so in short I'm saying,
lets not add a file id based ui option unless thats actually what is
needed.

AIUI vincent wants to support a user that needs to log a deleted path;
neither file ids in the UI, nor multiple ids in the log core are needed
to do that *as I understand the problem*.
