yes, there is one, but i dont know how would you modify the PostgreSQL code.
You can implement a GUID datatype and can use it as indexing which guarantees uniqueness and can be stored in double format.

Hi,
OID being a 4 byte int seems limited to indexing for binary objects.
More precisely I use BLOB to store images in the database and link these
objects to another table using the OID as FK.
If I run out of OID there will be no way to index new images. Of course
when not automatically creatin
