Well I can confirm that statement. IMHO the real mess is in the overview .img and .tdb files. The parameter shuold be divided to something like:
overview-mapname -> any string name, used as filename
overview-mapid -> 8digit number, representing the "root" id that is assigned to overview map in TDB file and that is chained to slave detail mapids.

In my previous post i proposed a patch that solve this problem but it is still not observed nor committed. I don't know why? :(
