Ecasound allows to use both label (-el) and unique id (-eli) to identify
plugins. In many cases label is sufficient (versus file+label), and in the
rare case of a conflict, then unique-id is a practical way to select the
correct plugin. At least nobody has complained about the current
implementation so far. Still, adding a 3rd option (file+label) is perhaps
not a bad idea. It's just that for command-line line use, the shorter
variants are less cumbersome to use.
