Let me be clear. I would vote against this proposal, for the following
reasons:

1. user-id + timestamp is useful information. Imo, a distinct user id, say
the user's github id, is required to ensure unique gnx's. There has been a
long, technical, discussion of this.

2. Any change to gnx format would amount to a change in supported external
files. Any such change would make it impossible for old versions of Leo to
read @file nodes. This is a big deal.

In short, the supposed advantages, such as they are, do not come close to
justifying a big change to Leo.
