Merging Visual Studio solution files

Question

Microsoft Visual Studio (2005 and 2008) seems to have fun shuffling the Project IDs (GUIDs) around each time we do a little change in a solution. We found that this little detail leads to frustration each time someone has to merge branches in Source control...

We though about coding a little tool to sort those Project ids before Check In. This way, merging would be easier. Is there some option that I missed in Visual Studio Options that would do just that?

Unfortunately it does not look good so far.
