Thanks for the clarification, David.
You are quite correct - I was thinking/talking in terms of
the full OID of an entry in a table (i.e. a column instance).
And specifically one indexed by a single integer.

The final subidentifier of the OID of a MIB definition cannot
be 0, regardless of whether this is a column or scalar object
(or an internal framework definition).

And it's not strictly instance OIDs *ending* in 0 that
are problematic - rather OIDs where the list of instance
subidentifier(s) is exactly the single value 0.  So for
tables indexed by anything other than a single integer
(strings, OIDs, multiple indexes), there's no problem
about the final element of that index instance being 0.
   It's just where the *whole* of the index instance
sequence is precisely "0" that this issue arises.
