Nondeterministic global snippet URLs

Proposal

As a CE user, I would like to be able to create a public "global" snippet that is accessed via a URL that is not easy to predict.

Current:

https://[domain]/snippets/1

https://[domain]/snippets/2

etc.

Proposed:

https://[domain]/snippets/ed1bf7f366d1d52aeef5

https://[domain]/snippets/592ee1d7dc4039c3bb4

etc.

Rationale

This feature would make it possible to share the URL to a public snippet without easily exposing other public snippets. There is no real benefit to having deterministic global snippet URLs that I can see. They only decrease privacy and potentially allow mischievous actors to easily scrape your global snippets.
