we've been using uuidLinks in a project with almost 2000 pages for almost nine months without any serious problems. the one big disadvantage is: when a linked page gets deleted you can only see the uuid instead of the handle in uuidLink-dialogs - difficult for reproducing the real targets of broken links.
