It seems that the original intent was to do something similar to Java's
convention for globally unique names: com.example.PackageName.

Admittedly, the entire bundle_id idea seems ill guided to me, as one
can't install two copies of Foo.activity, regardless of their IDs being
globally unique. In this regard, org.tuxpaint.sugar-is-lame was quite
appropriate :-)
