No, you are right, we do have UUID, but we added it just in case we need
it in the future, e.g., for NFS support, but we do not use it currently
because we did not need it. And we did not look at mounting by UUID - it
should be possible to do.
I'm a bit overloaded at the moment, but if I have time later, I can look
at it.
