Can I change the uid/gid of the system users 'admin' and 'nobody'?

The default uid of users admin and nobody are 500 and 501 respectively.
To be consistent with my other Linux systems, I would like to use those ids for other non-system users.

If I relocated admin and nobody to some other (lower) uids would I have any problems?
Specifically:
- Does the DNS-323 hard-wire in references to admin and nobody by their uid/gid NUMBERS (vs. names) which would cause problems?
- Will the DNS-323 restore the admin and nobody uids/gids after a reboot (even assuming that I have used store-password.sh to save the revisd password and group files to the flash partitions)?

Thanks!
