More importantly this kind of symptom makes me worry that we might be papering over more serious issues with colliding states in the Table on restart.

Each time a tid is consumed (at least for an update) it is journaled in 
the EMetaBlob::table_tids list, right?  So we could actually take a max 
from journal replay and pick up where we left off?  That seems like the 
cleanest.

I'm not too worried about 2^32 tids, I guess, but it would be nicer to 
avoid that possibility.
