I tend to make heavy use of namespaces / folders / frameworks to  
isolate subsystems and in each subsystem I may very likely have  
similarly named headers (like support.h, datatypes.h, etc.).

Most of the time headers from one subsystem will only be used by  
sources in that subsystem, but there are exceptions (mainly when the  
public header of the subsystem require other headers).

Yeah, I am sort of convinced that going with some random bytes is  
really the best option, but it might be good to use the file name  
prefix as a prefix.

Btw: my commit actually introduce invalid symbols for when the UUID  
starts with a digit, I will commit a fix shortly where I will make it  
something like FILENAME_EXT_XXXXXXXX, here X is a random character  
from [A-Z0-9].
