I think I've posted this before, but KSUID is a format for globally unique k-sortable ID.
I'm encountering a problem where it would have otherwise been much simpler had I thrown all values—regardless of what table they go on—into a single "virtual" pile, irrespective on what they are, and how they relate to others. Yes, I still use tables, but a unique ID to point to a universe of potential values is so much more easier to cache.
