Support for more than just MySQL isn't really there yet. Feel free to
contribute this support. The "right way" to do it would be to re-write
things to use Turbine's Peer model which has built in support for not only
using sequences, but also has an IDBroker so that you can write things in
such a way as to not even need sequences or autoincrement.

I currently have no plans on supporting Oracle. This type of support needs
to come from the community (like you).
