Different things behave diffrently, i don't see the inherently problem.
And btw. instead of 'faking' a nonexisting id IMHO the "correct(tm)" key
should be used for deleting a recording. (Name/time)
This way you wouldn't have had the "problem" in the first place.
Btw2. Only because "one size fits all" doesn't mean that that is
good(tm).
Btw3. Timers/Channels are more complex than recording, you can add
and/or modify and/or sort the entries which isn't possibel for
recordings (at least not within SVDR). In other words. Without ACID
nothing goes here.
Btw4. I wouldn't have a problem with an ACID complient interface. In my
daily job i'm a database developer so i know perfectly well this type of
problem(s).

Real Programmers consider "what you see is what you get" to be just as
bad a concept in Text Editors as it is in women. No, the Real Programmer
wants a "you asked for it, you got it" text editor -- complicated,
cryptic, powerful, unforgiving, dangerous.
