I replied to your post, but basically after some testing your way does cause noticeable slow downs on machines with heavy load. When dealing with PHP you want things as fast as possible and an extra query will not do that.
I understand the issue concerning the IDs, and I'd assume other people would have the same issue. For that, feel free to distribute your change. That's the beauty of open source, if you need the program to do something other than what the author had intended, you can.
People who create mobs out of game using the editor or queries would benefit from the stock way. It creates a more tidy db and as I said the editor performs better under heavy loads. Those who rather build in-game would most certainly benefit from your change, which for many people is a lot more user friendly.
