[Solar-talk] sql_model auto-create

It's not you; the creation stuff isn't working yet.

For now, yes; I'm going to try to make it use both, but auto- 
increment will be the main use instead of a sequence.  This breaks a  
long-time habit for me, but auto-inc does seem to be the far more  
popular system.

It will in the future, but does not right now.

There is.  Very sorry to have misled everyone on that.  (There's a  
lot of work left to do on many parts of the new Model, actually, I  
just wanted to get it out there so everyone could comment and critique.)
