Yes, we have macro defines for these. There are only two possible levels 
(pipe/plane).

In case any future platforms require any additional checks, we can use 
this member. Having said that, yes.. we are currently not using it.

Saving Blob ID allows us to do a lookup of the blob using ID. This will 
be useful in get_property call.
