Prefix id with model name

[atlanteh]

When inserting a model with generated id, the id is totally random and there's no way to identify the documents by looking at their ids. Can it be implemented so that the ids will be prefixed by the model name (or other attribute)?

There are a few things you could do/use:

• The model name is already saved in the doc as _type, and if you run autoupdate() there's a view auto-generated which uses the type to power the find() method (see https://github.com/Wiredcraft/loopback-connector-couchbase3/blob/master/lib/couchbase3.js#L338).
• So the idea is usually relying on views.
• If you really need to identify it with the ID you could generate it by yourself (and don't use the auto-generated ID).
