Integer foreign key types?

[Colin Law]

Hi

I already sent this to the gnucash-user list but I meant to send it
here to the development list.

I suppose it is much too late to put in a plea for the foreign keys in
the database to be integer types rather than character guids?  I will
appologise in advance as no doubt this was discussed ad nauseum long
ago.  I am looking at possibilities for accessing the db via
alternative routes and some of this would be much easier with integer
keys.
