There is a serious @safe-ty issue with the current 
implementation: randomUUID/parseUUID are marked @trusted, but 
take an arbitrary range as template parameter, the methods of 
which might be @system.

I'm aware that this mistake is astonishingly easy to make, and 
that code like that can be extremely tiresome to get right – 
there is no way to mark only a part of a template function 
@trusted, so you can rely on inference for handling cases where 
safety depends on the template arguments. I should really try to 
find the time to finish my @trusted rant post soon…

However, under the assumption that the aforementioned issues will 
be fixed, I vote for Yes. The library is nothing spectacular, and 
I haven't had a chance to use it myself yet, but it seems like a 
solid, well-documented implementation.
