Any clever ideas?
A while back I posted the XSLT 2.0 code necessary to create a UUID,
close enough to the thoughts behind a UUID to be reasonably globally
unique (but without the network interface number etc). The idea was to
create an XSLT-only and portable solution. It's a simple function that
however often you call it, even within one run, without using extension
functions, always produces a unique string.
One place where it is archived currently:

though as almost always, the layout/indentation is broken...
HTH,
