1 Any specific reason for 553?

3 I had previously suggested that we stay below 500 as long as there is
4 space. On the one hand it would match the LSB better, on the other hand
5 we might at some point want to do dynamic allocation counting from 999
6 downwards, and keeping the fixed IDs below 500 would reduce the chance
7 of collisions.
