[dev] What should we do about GUIDs changing?

Okay. I'm going to work on switching Nag, Kronolith, and Mnemo to generate
md5-hashed unique ids instead of using sequences. I'm not going to worry about
old data, because that's just gonna be a mess; as things are, the old ids are
at least unique from each other, so that's going to have to be good enough for
now.

The @server_name would solve those, too, if necessary.
