It seems quite possible that applications solve the problem
differently on Linux.
I'm not aware of a different solution to the problem on Linux.

Adding it by default for everyone still seems too aggressive.
We had a ton of pain with pvpanic exactly because of a
similar "can't hurt" approach.
I think a better approach would be to merge the code in qemu,
merge a linux driver. Once that's available, and some apps use it,
enabling it by default will seem more reasonable.
You should not enable it by default. It should be left for the
management system to decide. QEmu by itself can't follow rules/spec on
when to change the UUID.
