Just to clarify, this is the way it works on the branch: that doesn't
mean it is the best w
Putting a UUID in a field called 'HOST' seems backwards-incompatible to me.
You're changing the meaning of the HOST field, even if the data type remains

I'd favor reserving 'HOST' for a hostname, and adding a 'UUID' field to the XML
for UUIDs.

I've started a branch for sending UUID instead of hostname
This necessitates change to the XDR packet format, but it is backwards
compatible
Nonetheless, it is not desirable to change the XDR format regularly, so
it would be good to know if there are other XDR changes people would
like to integ
