The "talking to each other thing" is only relevant if you are trying to install a ghost image of the same install with the same SID.

First, READ WHAT I WROTE.
You sound like your talking from theory. I'm willing to bet money your are as a matter of fact. I've done this myself and know it works.
I have the machines to prove it.
And your "anywhere in the world" serial statement is wrong too. Microsoft disabled that because too many legitimate users were being denied updates and what not because of all the hacked serial numbers.
Chill out. Your're the one who is wrong.
You don't have to register anything at all, it can be bypassed and the only conflict that will arise is if 2 machines with identical serial numbers are networked.
