They’re long and (as far as I can see at the moment) unnecessary when

As far as I know, technically an XML ID value needs to be unique in
the whole document, and for the XMPP case the document is the XMPP
stream/session. Using UUIDs would avoid having to go over and reassign
IDs when attaching one message to another, etc.
Oh, you meant a literal ‘id’. That’s easily avoidable just by using a
different attribute :)
IMHO this is exactly why 'id' was invented. :-)
