I would stick to RANDOM only and think about adding some future
enhancement which works seamlessy for every cObject as soon as it's key
contains "_INT". Should be possible, after all.

Until then, I agree that RANDOM wrapped into COA_INT means overhead, but
is completely acceptable as long as we also need to do the same for TEXT
and any other cObject.

This is no +1 nor -1, just a feedback about the general idea.
