It would make sense if they made use of the same definitions across the two file formats. Still mzML files might also have a single ID number it uses and which mzR reads into acquisitionNum...
I don't have high expectations regarding consistence among formats, but I would be willing to favour mzML
- mzXML
could be considered superseded be the former.
See section 5.1.3 Use of identifiers for input spectra to a search in the mzIdentML
Specification Document.
I hope to invest some time in the coming weeks to read more about the mzML and mzIdentML regarding the feature matching. This is build in, although I don't know the details. I think this is something that should be considered before tackling things purely from R in the frame of our discussions.
