Worst part is that you can't double-click on one to highlight the whole thing, you have to drag your cursor over it.
At a previous company, we worked _really_ hard to come up with a "4x4" ID system (i.e. a1b2-c3d4) because they'd often have to be read over the phone. Originally, we worried we'd run out of them but after 15+ years it seems like they're still going strong.
