Hi Pierre,
I've actually been going back and forth on HTLC IDs lately, and am
actually currently working on a cleaner solution -- I think you might
like it (provided it works out). The thinking was so that one is able to
uniquely identify HTLCs at a later time by having unique ID upon
creation (direction should be contextually understood by the
positive/negative amount). The ID doesn't really need to be in the final
wire protocol, it's more helpful for debugging than anything.
