So, just to be clear, would you generally consider it to be the case
that a unique bundle identifier is intended to identify a unique
application and not different versions of the same application?
Generally, that is the case. For example, Launch Services has
mechanisms to locate an app by bundle identifier, and I believe
AppleScript now has a way to address an app by bundle identifier; in
such cases, the bundle identifier is regarded as more stable than the
application name, and in general the preferred way to locate a
particular application.
