 > (There was only a single instance of the GUID being used in core UI that
 I found while working on the importer, but that was fixed in #33386.)

 Does that adequately address nacin's point 1 from above?

 >  1. Stop using GUIDs for anything other than UUID usage. Attachments are
 guilty here.

 If so, then addressing point 2 becomes possible, however we may want to
 consider any impact on plugins using the guid field incorrectly. Might be
 worth a scan.
