I hope you didn't take my comment the wrong way. I have a very dry/quirky sense of humor. I wasn't trying to denigrate your solution in any way, other than to say going through all those steps to perform a function reminds me of the early days of computers when we had all these "work arounds" because software had only basic functionality.
Sigil HAS the ability to generate a UUID because it does it when opening a new document. It would be nice to have a button/option that said "Regenerate UUID" in the metadata editor.

I don't know who does (other than epubreader), or does not use the UUID (I've only created/cleaned personal books)...or what purpose the UUID will be put to in the future...but the spec requires a "unique" ID, so I try and put one in there.

Cheers!
