Comment(by Denis-de-Bernardy):

 No no, it would be the post_guid. The latter needs to be unique anyway. It
 currently contains the url of the post, as it would appear with no fancy
 urls. It could just as well contain a UUID (see #6492).

 It's not safe to pre-assign a numerical ID to a post, but it's perfectly
 safe to pre-assign a UUID. Instead of passing a $temp_ID around, we'd pass
 a $post_guid. Using the $post_guid, we get the ID (creating the post on
 the fly if needs be).
