No, it's not really necessary.  I'm pretty sure I had it in there for
possible future compatibilty with getText.  ListView item id's are separate
from control id's.  Part of the data stored is what ListView the item
belongs to, but it's not necessary to fetch the text.  This is because
Win32Lib stores the text for each item for windows.  Whenever windows needs
the text, it asks Win32Lib.
