Sequential ID's for events?

[richardhuaaa]

I wonder if it would be nice to have sequential ID's on events, so that during playback the player can detect if events are missing, out of order, or duplicated (and same within our own app layer).

I recently fixed an issue on our end where sessions weren't replaying due to missing snapshots (ultimately because payloads were failing to reach our server). However, I wonder if other cases would be harder to detect, such as events missing in the middle, or duplicate events, especially as we work on fancier things like long-lived sessions, live streaming sessions, buffering in chunks, etc.

These ID's could also be added ourselves within the app layer, I just wonder if it would have additional usefulness for debugging if it was baked into the library itself, so thought I would start a discussion.

agree, maybe a sequential id plugin is good

Looks like #819 solved this feature request. Thanks for that @Yuyz0112, and thank you for the feature request @Silhouettes. Closing this issue for now
