Yes would be better if could do without a serial number for each object, if it is used only for rename it would be better to figure out a mechanism for jut this case.

Someone suggested forward annotation work just fine then it should be like this.
  1. Figure out old-->new refdes, maybe possible from old update file? Or gschem store/send information?
  2. Execute rename exactly once without stuck in the middle.
