Sorry, it only demonstrates a lack of understanding for the
worth of UIDs. ;)
But I do not fight a holy war here. There are some decisions
made.
I just made some good practise _suggestions_ that where
tested on an ammount of about 30 million items at the least
amongst which I've to find a single one every other day. We
have no UID and we're now in the middle of creating them,
meaning to work trough these 30*10^6 items. Yes, mainly by
hand. But we've something close to a UID at least in every
single DB that goes into the large merger to be built and
which will be surely a bit larger than those 30*10^6.
