Bruce,

yes, I expressed myself a bit ambiguous, as frequently one might add .. ;-). Yes, you \
are definitely right that it's not the key  generator principles should be changed \
but the way SQLEngine and a key generator of this kind play it out. I'd really like \
to  see a initial patch for this, as simple as it might be be.

Werner
