not including the uuid in :5984/ is a welcome oversight, but we should fix it in a future release.

All nodes in the same cluster should be set to have the same uuid (the uuid is uniquely identifying the _cluster_). Different clusters must have different uuids. But because each node will generate a uuid on startup if it's missing, it's fortunate we didn't add it to the welcome message yet.
