You don't need ID. Components should tie themselves automatically.

Of course if you simulate gravity, then after a planets have formed, they could be assigned entities to optimize physics, but it should be done in totally transparent way, so a meteor could break planet back into particle clouds with some attached thermodynamic simulation.
