Feature request: Ability to choose to generate v4 UUIDs #21

As UUID v1 uses the MAC address of the local machine, it keeps information that's not necessary in all situations.

v4 is random, so requires no system calls to generate. java.util.UUID.randomUUID(); Found this as well: http://docs.oracle.com/javase/8/docs/api/java/util/UUID.html#randomUUID--
