Yes.

However:

1) files created with Aegis 4.16 and earlier does not have an UUID;
Aegis itself (the Peter's repository) should have a lot of old files
(.h, etc/*, lib/en/*, etc ..)

2) the current API has some problem: searching for the UUID of a
renamed files returns only the create half, in order to get the remove
half the file name must be used.  I'm thinking about a new
file_action_rename action.
