Yes, that's my wish.

I think of an option like:
[x] Delete UUID automatically, if an ISDN exist and use it as BookID


Of course I know how to delete it manually in the code.

My wish is, that Sigil supports the editor in producing OPFs which are as free as possible from superfluous code.

If developers are reading this thread: please just take my wish as a suggestion

Another option I'm looking for:

Change the pattern of the automatically generated IDs:

Now:
id="title.xhtml"
id="ch01.xhtml"

I prefer:
id="title"
id="ch01"

In other words: Just the filename as ID, without the extension.
