[Archivesspace_Users_Group] container ids in exported EAD changing

[Steven Majewski]

I was just doing some tests on exporting EAD ( AS v1.1.1 ) and I noticed 
that the container ids  change on every export:


        <c02 id="aspace_ce99c6434158423922d1cb7269d2d6eb" level="file">
          <did>
            <unittitle>William Faulkner Foundation</unittitle>
            <unitdate type="inclusive">1961-1978, undated</unitdate>
            <container id="aspace_a8d7a56421f7fe676aece03cb158231c" label="Text" type="Box-folder"
              >6:10</container>
          </did>
        </c02>



        <c02 id="aspace_ce99c6434158423922d1cb7269d2d6eb" level="file">
          <did>
            <unittitle>William Faulkner Foundation</unittitle>
            <unitdate type="inclusive">1961-1978, undated</unitdate>
            <container id="aspace_7786fd082905fc4e886fccda4539c9b6" label="Text" type="Box-folder"
              >6:10</container>
          </did>
        </c02>



Is there a reason for this ? 

I see that the c02/@id stays the same and is the value of the archival_object’s ref_id  ( with “aspace_” prefix added ). 
If the container ids are not stored in ArchivesSpace and are generated differently on the fly for export, 
it would be better to just not add an id attribute.
