Remove the ID from Page Extensions. If I extend a salesprocess and want to show my field on every card and list page, I will need many Page Extensions and so I will need a huge ID Range only for page Extensions. Since I can only have 1 "page extension object" for a page inside my module it would...

Would like to see that the AL compiler or one of the code analyzers gives a warning when the Get procedure is called with insufficient arguments, too many arguments, or arguments of invalid types that do not match the formal parameters expected given the PK of the record in question.
