Sergey,
I took a look at your patch for chapter 9.14 "UUID Functions" docs page. You've added some really good content here. I think section 9.14.4. "Deciding Whether and Which UUID to Use" would be better suited for Chapter 8: "Data Types" -- specifically, 8.12. "UUID Type", since the content seems to deal more with the UUID data type than the UUID functions.
Best regards,
Andy A.

Andrew,
I don't think so. The documentation text specifically concerns identifiers generated by these functions, and not UUID version 4 or 7 in general, or the UUID type itself.
That likely just means we need to talk about the various UUID versions within the data type section. This is a property of the stored data independent of how those values are generated. It isn't like this behaves differently if the user computes it in the application and passes it in compared to using the built-in function.
