   Does standard explicitly mention that identity's internal sequence must be 
user-manipulatible? Does it say that in must be the same type of sequence as 
"standalone" 
ones?
   Say, Firebird one day decide to support cluster/cloud architecture and keep 
values in 
identity column globally unique. It will require an external source of 
sequentional values.
