Creating sites from site templates

There's a lot of bugs you will notice when creating sites from site templates saved through the GUI in Sharepoint 2010. A couple of examples; Document ID is not unique in the site collection Content types you may have in your document libraries may be corrupt, there's a lot of fixing you will have to do by hand or by scripting, using powershell.

Document ID not unique

I've noticed document ID is not unique when using Sharepoint 2010 site templates saved from the GUI. Microsoft is working on a solution, there will be a hotfix in a couple of weeks.
