...I'm back to work on this now, so I should have a revised version
of the Perl Hub and client test suite available this week (unless
something comes up).

I can't remember whether I argued for or against this, and I know that the hub-id is now returned on registration. However this means that if you have a client that needs to know the hub-id, the client (probably?) needs to keep some sort of state and can't just do a quick request to the Hub to find this out. This complicates clients.
Perhaps we should leave in getHubId( ) intact?
However I've got no strong feelings either way...
