Record ids:
* 1: a part, type identified by either "LIBREFERENCE" or "DESIGNITEMID"
* 2: a pin on a part
* 6: a "drawing" I think... "Xn"/"Yn" are values of where a line should be drawn
* 34: a designator?
* 41: text associated with a part - lots of different types indicated by "NAME"
* PinUniqueId: I suspect a unique id for the associated pin
* Fitted: ...wat?
* Comment: self explanatory
* 44: a container of "models" aka record 45's - see below
* 45: appears to be a reference to which "model" a particular part can be represented by. Since this is just a
possible model, the one actually selected for a given part will have the "ISCURRENT" flag set to "T"
