--- Comment #1 from Terrence Enger <[email protected]> ---
Alas, I can see why we might have chosen not to support autoincrement
in a firebird database.  "The Firebird FAQ, How to create an
autoincrement column?"  <http://www.firebirdfaq.org/faq29/> says that
it takes a BEFORE INSERT trigger to accomplish the autoincrement.
Moreover, that page reassuringly tells us "Most GUI administration
tools have options to generate this code for you automatically, so it
is not a problem."

So, I think that it would be an enhancement to provide this
functionality.  Alternatively, it could be seen as a bug that the
Table Design View offers Autovalue in a Firebird database.  The
decision about what to do is way above my pay grade.

Oh yeah, I do see th problematic behavior on master from 2013-09-19,
but I am leaving status UNCONFIRMED pending a decision on which
direction we want to go.

Terry.
