Well, not very clear. Instead of producing a warning or a panic, 
should not simply tla ignore text that looks like an id but is not 
valid within the boundary, and try to find one at the bottom of the 
file ?

In the cduffy's case, it would just work, and in a case where an id 
is really truncated, tree-lint would warn with "These apparent 
source files lack inventory ids:". And with untagged-source 
unrecognized, no problem ;)
