Within a given network the identifier doesn't matter, but I think it'd
be a good idea if the identifiers applied by different networks didn't
collide so my gateway scenario will work.

Something similar to the rules for generating a Message-ID should do
the trick, the name can be arbitrary so long as it's in a domain you
control.

R's,
John
