      Description

      Feature request native support for UUID's as a column type instead of having to resort to a binary(16)

      • more comfortable because they do not have to do hex / unhex and remove dash
      • faster index than varchar variant
      • automatic generation of UUID if inserted record with NULL PK

              I don't see recommendation do it as separate type and also I don't see recommendation to validate UUID value and automatic generate if inserted record with NULL PK
              My description of this feature is more accurately

              Still, MDEV-4958 was created first. Instead of creating a duplicate you could've added your clarifications as a comment to that, already existing, task. I've now done that, so your input won't be lost.
