Lucee and UUID - Change segment format?

Hi guys,

According to the documentation Lucee creates UUID’s with createUUID()
according to the 4 segment standard. (8-4-4-16)
Example: xxxxxxxx-xxxx-xxxx-xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

Is there any way to change this to five segments (8-4-4-4-12) ?
Example: xxxxxxxx-xxxx-xxxx-xxxx-xxxxxxxxxxxx

According to Universally unique identifier - Wikipedia it
seems this is inherited from ACF (Adobe ColdFusion).

you can use the CreateGUID() function instead, or do some simple string
modification to “move” the hyphens.
