Andrei I modified this in response to your earlier feedback so that it
doesn't modify the user-supplied data and doesn't have any effect beyond
the three places I mentioned. These have no negative impact on uuid
values used elesewere. If you don't want to support this fair enough -
this can be dropped without impacting the other patches.
