The values of the link attributes should not change. Of course for servers that re-use unique identifiers this could be an issue. But this would also be an issue for links between public and private keys, and
public keys and certificates. In fact anywhere that UIDs of keys are stored in attributes or even in applications outside of servers, re-use of UIDs would be problematic.
