Hmm, I guess the invalid client ID is not critical. But please always
include the name and version number so that we can block the program in
case it causes problems due to bugs.

Sending large batches of PUID mappings is preferred because that's
cheaper for the server and doesn't generate that many edits. Currently
the limit is set to 5000 PUIDs per POST.
