JsonRestStore.getIdentity(): order of precedence is wrong?

[Simon Speich]

When using store.newItem() either the client-side or the server-side generated id is used depending on the the server's response. If the server responds with a Location header in the POST, the Location is used as the id. But store.getIdentity() favors item.clientId over item.id, so the id in the Location header is never used, e.g.:

// currently (wrong?):
getIdentity: function(item){
	var id = item.__clientId || item.__id;
	if(!id){
		return id;
	}
	...
},

Patch (order in first line changed):

getIdentity: function(item){
	var id = item.__id || item.__clientId;
	if(!id){
		return id;
	}
	...
},

[Jared Jurkiewicz]

I believe the order is correct. The identity, clientside, should never change as widgets like Grid cache and index by them. Reassigning to Kris to confirm.

Please could anyone give more explanation to this issue? Is it not possible to get the newly assigned ID of the item by standard API?
