Hey internals!

I haven't written the RFC yet,

Please don't forget to include in the RFC a justification for why this
should be part of PHP core, rather than a library

because as developer in reality you can not use and rely on features which needs to install some pecl-library when it is supposed to be used on typical hosting packages

It doesn't have to be a PECL library. I agree that a project requiring a PECL library greatly limits its potential reach, but with Composer user-space libraries are totally easy to install. There's a nice and popular UUID implementation already:

https://packagist.org/packages/ramsey/uuid

Note: That doesn't mean adding UUID functionality to PHP core/standard lib is a bad idea; discussing that is fine. But the "no one will be able to use it otherwise" argument is substantially less compelling than it was even 5 years ago.
