Would be cool if last_insert_id() was not a property of the connection
only, but a property of the connection+table. Then, one could do a
"SELECT last_insert_id() FROM table" to get the specific id. As a
side-effect, FTS3 and other modules could merrily deal with their own
respective INSERTs without screwing around with the more "legitimate"
last_insert_id()s from the perspective of the user.

I guess, as a work around, the user could maintain a separate table
which would be updated via TRIGGER AFTER INSERT with the user_id
"just" inserted along with the table to which it belongs.
