 Replying to [comment:11 helen]:
 > In lieu of changing this outright for everybody, and the potential
 consequences that lie within, what if we switch to hooking `esc_url()` in?
 This would allow for those who want to use the GUID for something other
 than a URL to unhook and hook in something more appropriate like
 `esc_html()`.
