# rcNG script to start uuidd at boot-time on rcNG-enabled systems,
-# such as FreeBSD.
+# such as FreeBSD. Note: Starting uuidd at boot-time is not strictly
+# necessary, the library will - as of 1.41.5 - silently launch an
+# instance of uuidd that exits after 300 seconds; for most accurate
+# time-based uuids generated from unprivileged user accounts it may be
+# useful to run it system-wide.
