Personally, I think that much of the "really high quality" issues are not
that important for MC Go right now. I think that other things like not
having a reasonable distribution function (which UCT does a remarkable
job of smoothing over) completely overwhelm the effects of a poor PRNG.
I agree with that.
By the way,
I have spent time on the use of improved forms of Monte-Carlo
(quasi-random, stratification, ...) but I've never found an efficient
trick.
