I think I posted in the exact same spot several years ago asking for an up-to-date UUID generator, similar to the the ones running on most Linux and BSD systems. Yet, we are limited to creation of a single fixed type of UUID.
To get proper hashed UUIDs, I have to run uuidgen in a loop and dump it into a text file, which I then load into a table so I have a collection of proper UUIDs for when I need them.
PostgreSQL doesn't make me do this...
