I agree, this behaviour is fine for a beta, but not acceptable for a 
final release.

Perhaps with the switch the ids can be switched as well. I mean the new 
ones will get the ids of the old and vice versa. Or does this break the 
linking within the other versions?

Another idea is not to link to uids but cids (content ids). All records 
that are copied when creating a new version, inherit the cid from their 
"parent". The cid may simply be the uid of the original record.
