Tape Backups show VMID only?

Hi.
We are migrating from Vmware/Veeam to Proxmox/PBS, and overall things are going well.
Just started implementing tape backup for 1 year retention and noticed that the VM NAME is not included in the catalog of vms backed up to tape.
Only the VMID is listed (i.e vm/101).I expect this will be fine under most circumstances, but I also anticipate a scenario where someone OKs the deletion of a server that is no longer needed, then 11 months down the road realizes they need a file from that server and now I have to figure out what vmid a server deleted months ago had last time it was backed up to tape.

How do you guys deal with this?
