I'd like sections and groups to have ids too, if it's not too much of a pain.

This isn't fixed yet.

I'm a little suspicious about this, because it's designed to help people do something they shouldn't be doing - modifying the toolbar without using the toolbar API. They should instead be adding features to the API if they need to do something they can't do yet.

I consider this equivalent to adding an API call to MediaWiki that let you remotely call any procedure you like. Not a good idea. (yes, the analogy isn't perfect, but hopefully it gets my point across)

On second thought, I agree.

Marking wontfix. Feel free to re-open with a rationale / use case.
