Bad idea for many reasons:
1. Not upwards compatible from existing scheme
2. Gross overkill
3. GUIDs can't be transmitted byte-wise, consisting of a 32 bit int,
three 16 bit ints, and a number of bytes. In a byte array, they're platform
independent.
4. That has no provision for non-numbers like strings.
DPB codes are single bytes assigned sequentially starting from 1. Anyone who
can't figure out how to assign private codes should take up a different line of
work.
