[Poll] Do you prefer term "StashID" or "Stash ID"?

At the moment nobody is really sure what is the proper term “StashID” or “Stash ID” and its usage in interface, documentation and even the development channels is all over the place. Lets change that.
There was previous attempt, but it got nowhere.

For the UI side I believe “Stash ID” is better. From a language standpoint it makes more sense.

User ID, Order ID, Session ID, these are all examples of existing variations of of similar structure and I think it should stay in line with this.

Stash ID (and StashID) isn’t a great name, since it really should be Stash-box ID - it’s referring to an ID on a stash-box instance after all. I think it was shortened for brevity.

Eventually, I’d like to convert the whole Stash ID concept into External ID instead, which would sidestep this whole thing.

I agree. “Stash ID” infers that it’s an ID on a local Stash instance. Because it comes from a Stashbox, it should be referred to as a Stashbox ID.
