sorry jochem,  i am going to have to resepectfully disagree with you
here.   This would not happen with a fully  ACID compliant database.  
Not the hack that MySql has done to make this happen.  I am not saying
MySql doesn't have its place with the database market, just that I
would never use it for data that was important to a buisness.

the D in ACID is for durability.   which guarantess that if anything
happens irregardless of misconfigured systems and bad behaving OS'es
that the database will keep track of the current state.

I do not think this is FUD by anymeans.  I do not think that
LiveJournal nor Wikipedia can say that their databases where left in
consistent states on restart.  A very simple task for an ACID database
