Changing the way arjuna's UIDs are structured is a big deal and a) will take more time than we have before component freeze for AS GA and b) is not worth the hassle in light of the number of alternatives available.

Feel free to provide any other implementation of process uniqueness you happen to like the look of, since the two we provide don't seem to meet with your approval. As long as it returns a value 0-65535 that's uniq in the scope of the O/S it's running on it should be possible to plug it in without too much hassle.
