So, is it the "right thing" for two versions of the application to have the same identifier?

That's the typical approach, although there are lots of apps that change their identifier with each release too.


Spaces does identify apps strictly by bundle identifier, so if you really want the ability to associate different versions of your app with different spaces, then you must change the bundle identifier for each application version. By doing that, you'll break any other bindings that the user may have specified, for example to have certain documents open with your application rather some other app.
