Actually, generating new unique ids for paragraphs isn't that complicated in Sigil. Thanks to the comprehensive Index code implemented by Meme, all you have to do is:
  1. Delete all paragraph ids and select Tools > Index > Index Editor.
  2. Right-click the Index Editor window and select Autofill.
  3. Select Tools > Index > Create Index.
This will cause Sigil to automatically add consecutive ids to each paragraph in the epub. (Not that they'll be particularly useful.)
