I need to have clean and pretty urls for SEO purpose.

Once you add parameters like sort order, sorting field, page number, page limit, summary template, detail template (and other parameters that the news and other various modules support for customizing the output) to the url, no matter what you do, it won't be pretty. and besides, usually it's the detail view that's most important anyways... users don't generally care about how ugly the url is to access "the 4th page of all news articles (even expired ones) sorted by author in decending order with 5 items per page", using a different detail template.
News allows you numerous ways to organize the data, just by adding more calls to the module. Making the pagination urls 'pretty' would require removing that flexibility.
With .htaccess, i can build my own pretty url mechanism with RewriteRule command like :
RewriteRule news/([^/]*)/([^/]*)/$ index.php?mact=News,me01e7,default,1&me01e7returnid=28&page=28&me01e7pagenumber=$1&me01e7number=$2 [L]
My concern is about the "me01e7" value (in my example) which seems to be the News module ID of my cmsms installation (not sure about that... ?!!?!).
My question :
Is this value (module ID?) may change during time or after an cmsms update for example ?
If yes : is it possible to fixe this value to make my RewriteRule alway working for this specic url ?
If no : bingo ! I can build clean urls for browsing news pages.
(sorry for my french english...

Thank for your response.
