Since I'm a db geek and was originally doing some drupal->wp scripting for the drupal community, my permalinks end in the actual post_id (?p=xxx) because at the time it mattered to <i>me</i> what it was. Now I'm probably going to change it to post slug (word-readable) but leave the rewrite rules in place for the old style too. Realize that you can have any number of permalink structures if you modify your .htaccess manually; the WP utility gives you the current form, but you can chain the rules one after the other so that any would be caught and used. Congrats on getting it all worked out! Don’t worry, the “/?p=xxx” and /?m=yyyymm”, etc. are based on absolute unique ids and other static data in your ‘posts’ table that don’t depend on permalinks.
