I'm guessing that the CCK folks did it for the same reason I did: it didn't require mucking with the JavaScript, and it does work.
I was thinking there was a better way to do this, but the fact the CCK did the same thing I did before suggests that some hacks are just better than others.
As a matter of fact, I tried to come up with a better solution than the [nid] thing (my motto was "nid should stay out of the user's eyes") see http://drupal.org/node/62498#comment-114723 for historical records. I even submitted a generic attempt for Core over there : http://drupal.org/node/80565 (on double checking, it seems you commented there some time ago - or is that another Rob ?) This did not get much success - I'm not sure it was a good idea to begin with, or maybe it was but I did it wrong. So i got back to the [nid] hack. Still not really happy with it, though. Yves
