Comment (by alexkingorg):

 Same goes for an upgrade script, actually. Granted, the only thing that
 would break might be a feed reader, but still.

 Technically true, but the only thing changing would be rows whose GUIDs
 were already "broken" and not usable.

   Didn't mean to suggest changing existing GUIDs only switching it to use
 an UUID instead of the permalink for new posts. If we go that way we
 probably can use UUIDs to replace any duplicate GUIDs too.

 Ah, that makes sense. Certainly, I don't care what the format of the value
 is.
