A simpler approach would probably be to create a bookmark of the original file and make sure the bookmark data prefers the file ID (kCFURLBookmarkCreationPreferFileIDResolutionMask). Then, all you have to do is resolve the bookmark and get the file's new name and location (from the returned file URL). Very fast, very neat.

That won’t work. kCFURLBookmarkCreationPreferFileIDResolutionMask was never implemented and the option didn’t make sense anyway (if anything, it should have been a resolution option, not a creation option).
Well, that's very sad. :(

Nevertheless, bookmarks must still do something equivalent, correct?

That is, I can create a bookmark for a file, rename/move that file, and the bookmark will still find it.
