[ServiceWorker] Should UUID for unique IDs be mandated? (#647)

UUIDs are awesome.

But I notice that http://www.w3.org/TR/FileAPI/ goes out of the way to only make use of UUIDs a __SHOULD__ not a __MUST__ for unique IDs. Do we want to require the use of UUIDs for SW, or use less strict requirements, like File does?

(Also... if this is the first place in the platform that is outright requiring UUIDs, should we be good anti-magicians and add a UUID-minting function somewhere? Not in the SW spec, of course...)
