I'm curious why there's no compatibility with `java.util.UUID`. I see that `Identifier` supports identfication in form of arbitrarily long `byte[]` arrays, but still you have `String toUuidString`, so `UUID toUuid()` and `Identifier fromUuid(UUID)` do not seem too far fetched. What gives?"},"comment":{"url":"https://api.github.com/repos/AltBeacon/android-beacon-library/issues/comments/89333203","html_url":"https://github.com/AltBeacon/android-beacon-library/issues/150#issuecomment-89333203","issue_url":"https://api.github.com/repos/AltBeacon/android-beacon-library/issues/150","id":89333203,"user":{"login":"davidgyoung","id":1044849,"avatar_url":"https://avatars.githubusercontent.com/u/1044849?v=3","gravatar_id":"","url":"https://api.github.com/users/davidgyoung","html_url":"https://github.com/davidgyoung","followers_url":"https://api.github.com/users/davidgyoung/followers","following_url":"https://api.github.com/users/davidgyoung/following{/other_user}","gists_url":"https://api.github.com/users/davidgyoung/gists{/gist_id}","starred_url":"https://api.github.com/users/davidgyoung/starred{/owner}{/repo}","subscriptions_url":"https://api.github.com/users/davidgyoung/subscriptions","organizations_url":"https://api.github.com/users/davidgyoung/orgs","repos_url":"https://api.github.com/users/davidgyoung/repos","events_url":"https://api.github.com/users/davidgyoung/events{/privacy}","received_events_url":"https://api.github.com/users/davidgyoung/received_events","type":"User","site_admin":false},"created_at":"2015-04-03T15:45:46Z","updated_at":"2015-04-03T15:45:46Z","body":"@flowlo, no disrespect to `java.util.UUID` intended.
