I think how this value is created is that the first number is the contextID, followed by a '.', then each element increments the element id, and each nesting adds a '.' separator character. However, my understanding of it is likely imperfect.

In case that this special handling is turned on via the various flags in ERXWORepetition are turned on.

And I agree that this is a non-issue. Turn on gzip and forget about it.
