Neat! It's true the PDB will choose a unique code for you,
but they will use what you supply if it is already unique,
and it is nice to be able to choose something that can help
you remember what it stands for.
Gone are the days when we could choose meaningfull pdb ID's
(like 1PRC, 2PRC, 3PRC etc are all photosynthetic reaction center),
but there is still some freedom in choosing the ligand ID's.
They are filling up fast, though!
locust 123% elbow.get_new_ligand_code AC
Unique ligand code : AC3
locust 129% elbow.get_new_ligand_code "A?3"
Unique ligand code : A?3

As of now, I insert my ligand in Coot using smiles string and for the 3-letter code I picked a non-existent code by trial and error (not very efficient). A cif file with corresponding name which I generated using Phenix was imported into Coot.
