I noticed that the gallery ID uses
Context.id, which was initialized withhash()from some string. Since the value ofhash()can change between different invocations of Python, this is not very helpful... I've replaced it with a truncated SHA256 converted to int. It's a bit inefficient, but definitely stable.I've only used this for one old travel blog that hasn't been updated since 2014, so I never noticed that the gallery IDs change...
(There's another
hash()use in the LaTeX parser, but that ID is never used as far as I can see, so I didn't touch it for now.)
