Are there any cases where the upper byte of the ID in question is
significant?

It is significant for most files I have. That's why I lookup twice
instead of just using the masked id as key.

(I.e., might that be a 24-bit ID plus a separate 8-bit field?)

I thought that myself i thus I coded it... then the regression test
showed me that it wasn't that.
