Thanks for clarifying, Kelly. I didn't find any documentation on these URLs so 
I went for my own approach. But I will definitely look into making it fit 
this scheme.

Personally, I would always prefer the UUID over the name as well. So I can try 
to change the patch to use this. If - and I really mean *if* - I ever get 
1.19.0 to build ... :/ It seems you have to re-learn the building process 
with each new version of the viewer. There's always something else breaking 
at the linking stage :(
