I'd like to have a single reservoir of RECIDs to apply across multiple tables.
Obviously I can do that by creating a table with a single auto-increment field and inserting every time I need a new RECID.
But that produces a lot of 8-byte+ records that have no real purpose.
A little resident function to delete each record when produced would keep the table pruned back, but I'm wondering whether there's a cleaner way to get to the same goal.
