Allow node templates names to use UUID

Created on 12 December 2017, over 6 years ago
Updated 6 February 2023, over 1 year ago

Problem/Motivation

Currently node templates can be named to target a specific node by ID, but this is not universally unique. Especially sites with default content and content moderation. Though we have option to target by path, it could be tricky as it's not stored against node and not revisionable.

Proposed resolution

Since D8 has UUID, we could add it as suggestion. It could be a simple solution to solve theming problem for nodes.

    This issue is being reviewed by the kind folks in Slack, #needs-review-queue-initiative. We are working to keep the size of Needs Review queue [2700+ issues] to around 400 (1 month or less), following Review a patch or merge request β†’ as a guide.

    This still needs profiling.

    Also curious if there's any security implication with this.
