Keep it simple use UUID.
I'm not sold on UUID PK's ... Mind you I have _no_ real world comparison data to support this, but I have to believe it's more expensive in every category except insert (and only that for WO because you have to do a PK query first instead of using autoincrement columns). Big String PK's just sort of give me the wilies -- I would be interested to see real perf #'s on this, though. Also, this presumes that you have the choice of your PK generation, which is not always the case. We have had to integrate with existing MySQL db's and it's a real hassle.
