+// Random returns a Random (Version 4) UUID or panics.

+// The strength of the UUIDs is based on the strength of the crypto/rand

+// A note about uniqueness derived from from the UUID Wikipedia entry:
+//
+// Randomly generated UUIDs have 122 random bits. One's annual risk of being
+// hit by a meteorite is estimated to be one chance in 17 billion, that
+// means the probability is about 0.00000000006 (6 × 10−11),
+// equivalent to the odds of creating a few tens of trillions of UUIDs in a
+// year and having one duplicate.
