(I think) Survey ID's were initially there because survey names were 
not.  Clearly id's should be used internally and behind the scenes as 
much as possible for efficiency, but they should be hidden from all 
users completely.  The superuser group should (optionally?) see Ids. 
Similarly, places like the cross-tabulation should avoid using internal 
question IDs etc., tho logical question number are fine (I think this is 
already free of exposed IDs?).
