i don't say that it's wrong. Using id's should be always used with care. 
And id's inside ExtJS application should be avoided to prevent double 
id's in html if a component is used more than one time (and id takes 
away this flexibility).

So you can use it if you have this in mind, and that's why i said - 
don't advise it if there are other ways to do like componentId or ref ;)
