Was trying to get both field_permissions and content_access modules to work, and discovered this node_access business for the first time. I've realised that most modules dealing with this have used Drupal's role rid as the gid when writing access rules, which is logical because it maps roles to grants simply, but the gid column is INT. Backdrop no longer has a rid, so to get his to work, I've had to write a doubtful function which maps each role to an INT, stored in config. Not fun.
Can that column be changed to simply accept the role's name rather than a rid? What would be the implications of this?

Have you already played with Views random seed? I belief, what you try to achieve would work with that module. Show only one node and set the sort order to "Global: Random seed" with "...
