It's not a problem as John says.  The simple thing to consider is that if you do 
the bit stuffing yourself, you need to use enough randomization to avoid 
duplicates that can exist from other services.  Remember that if a service is 
authorized to register with reggie (through JERI authorization etc), then the 
last service registering with a particular ServiceID wins and thats the only 
instance visible.
