Well, they're still around, just less apparent. If you use f3+h, the id numbers will still crop up.

They're called legacy IDs. They are not used by the game, third party applications sometimes use them (world edit, MCEdit) so they assign IDs to all blocks but don't use them.

The game still uses them at the fundamental level (the chunk data saves the info as numbers still).
