Pointing to a report via URL relies on knowing the report's ID number that is automatically assigned by Koha. However, this creates extra work for those of us creating reports that rely on other reports, or linking to reports via jQuery, and copying this jQuery to other servers; particularly test servers. It would be helpful if we could either manually assign these ID numbers or create some other type of ID that could be referenced via URL (with the condition that Koha checks if the ID us unique). This would allow for more consistency between servers.
I think editing IDs is a non-starter, but I think it would be a great idea to be able to assign a unique code or keyword to a report. It would certainly add a lot of flexibility when it comes to new or recreated reports.
