Looks to me like the best next actions would be:
1. Submit a patch that uses XID_FMT everywhere, as a cosmetic change.
This looks like it will reduce the main patch size considerably and
make it much less scary. That can be cleaned up and committed while we
discuss the main approach.
2. Write up the approach in a detailed README, so people can
understand the proposal and assess if there are problems. A few short
notes and a link back to old conversations isn't enough to allow wide
review and give confidence on such a major patch.
