1. Is this request related to a challenge you're experiencing? Tell me about your story.

If you rename a metadata, then any KB node that filtered for the old name will have the filter removed.
This happens because the DSL saves the condition using the metadata name.

Since the metadata have an ID, it would be better to store in the DSL the ID and not the name, this way you can rename the metadata in the KB without causing issues to existing workflows.

2. Additional context or comments

No response

3. Can you help us with this feature?
