For my usage model, the conflicting UIDs are acceptable, and this possibility is/will be documented as such. If your UNIX & ADS admins are communicating, it is be a simple matter of creating the NIS account and using find && chown to change the perms from the original Winbind-allocated-UID to the new UID. If your UNIX & ADS admins aren't communicating in that scenario, you're in more trouble than I care to think about. Seriously.
