19111	Post ID by Hash	braydonf		"Post IDs are currently stored as incrementing values. In the case with merging posts from two separate WordPress databases it introduces the problem of ID collisions. The step to merge posts becomes a process of importing with new IDs and breaks continuity since there would be an issue with maintaining the original ID, and able to sync back.

I'm suggesting using hashed IDs instead of incremented ID values, similar to how version control systems are currently designed.

GUID values are useful for site to site reference, however doesn't take into consideration having multiple and simultaneous systems that are able to be easily merged and branched, just like distributed version control."	enhancement	closed	normal		Database		normal	wontfix
