I tend to think that we would probably need to have a directive to

Ideally if we could figure how to relax this before 3.3 it would be
nice IMHO.
Yeah, that'd be really nice indeed.
I was just thinking about using existing uniqueness mechanisms. So
that's why I thought using the proxy name + the type a prefix and
additionally the servername for servers would be sufficient.
All those already need to be unique and would throw an alert. But I
wouldn't mind also adding IP+Port as well or even more, if necessary,
like PID or something.
Is there any other use for GUIDs other than HAProxy internal?
