Problem Statement/Rationale

I have a collection with documents containing UUID fields (standard, not legacy). When I browse those documents in the extension, they are shown like this:

{
"id": "5e58eae46015f74c61dd6af0",
"myuuid": {
"$binary":

{ "base64": "ILGr2eKZSmqkQX1OZsoICQ==", "subType": "04" }

}
}

I would have expected them to be shown as:

{
"id": "5e58eae46015f74c61dd6af0",
"myuuid": UUID("20b1abd9-e299-4a6a-a441-7d4e66ca0809")
}

Steps to Reproduce

Open a document from the side bar that contains a UUID field

Expected Results

I would have expected them to be shown as:

{
"id": "5e58eae46015f74c61dd6af0",
"myuuid": UUID("20b1abd9-e299-4a6a-a441-7d4e66ca0809")
}

Actual Results

UUID fields are shown like this:

{
"id": "5e58eae46015f74c61dd6af0",
"myuuid": {
"$binary":

{ "base64": "ILGr2eKZSmqkQX1OZsoICQ==", "subType": "04" }

}
}
