I hope I'm not mistaken, but I believe you *can* set the auto_increment number 
and pad it with leading zeroes.  Take for instance a table created using the 
query below:

CREATE TABLE blah (
  key int(12) unsigned zerofill NOT NULL auto_increment,
  data char(32) NOT NULL default '',
  PRIMARY KEY (key)
);

To set the auto_increment number, you just insert the number just like any 
other query:

INSERT INTO blah VALUES(000000000008, 'Lorem ipsum dolor');

To use auto increment, just set the value to zero or simply ignore it such that:

INSERT INTO blah VALUES(0, 'de Finibus Bonorum et Malorum');
or
INSERT INTO blah(data) VALUES('Gwapo ako, pero uwat gad la.');
