I consider that to be a deployment bug. If you're generating UUIDs using the RFC spec for generation algorithm, the chance of collision of UUIDs should be effectively zero. Furthermore, the UUID is exposed to the guest via SMBIOS, and you can't change that on the fly, so renaming UUID on the QEMU side is really not an option during migration.
