See my answer to your "own output format".
The id should be in the object fields, just adding a parse option to all 
objects (at the top level). That's the easy addition.

For CSG, intersection always returns the basic component,
so you will get either 1 or 2, but never 3 for your example.

At best, if you forbid a id value as meaning not set,
you could have the parser to paint the CSG id over component which have 
no value per themself.

Think of it just like a kind of pigment...
