The solution should have been to append a random string to the hotfix number. Still sorts the same way, but unguessable.


That doesn't help anything. You can't guess the next hotfix number, but you can still tell what order they were in and, after seeing a few examples to figure out how long the non-random part is, tell how many were skipped.
