In lieu of a reproducible test case (a couple of us took a stab at creating one ourselves and could not come up with your issue) or some other smoking gun it is something that has to ruled out. Statistically speaking, operator error is by far the most common cause of bug reports and as engineers we tend to rule out the most likely culprits first. It's nothing personal. By the way, I've been diagnosing and fixing other people's problems on this list for years and have a pretty good feel for what's a real problem or not. Your is one of those that can go either way and I was willing to take time out of my day, gratis, to help you fix it on your end and/or suggest a fix to the database itself. Since you are obviously unaware of the value of that help, not to mention Tom's incredibly precious time, it is your curse to have to reset your sequences for ever and ever.
