Hi, if I'm not mistaken, changing the .desktop filename is not a problem, as long as all the appstream data is properly updated. Changing the <id/> in the appstream data is a problem, as noted here [1]. Changing the <id/> also makes trouble to the plugins/extensions, they need to be updated; the app lost their reviews; basically anything what references the app by its <id/> will stop working/be lost. The app can have "<provides><id>old-id</id></provides>", or something like that it is, but the apps consuming the appstream data may or may not work with it properly. It won't help with the reviews, from my point of view.
