Is the pantry GUID the only form of security for all objects? Can this be rotated should it be compromised?

Great question!
Currently, the PantryID (uuidv4) is the only form of security, I am thinking that in a future release perhaps another form of authorization may be required.
Do you have any suggestions - I'm all ears!

Yeah, I imagine this is okay for testing, since UUIDs are fairly impossible to guess, however, you probably want a slightly more elaborate "authenticated session" based structure to ensure someone malicious who has obtained the UUID does not have an unlimited time window to exploit it.
