I want to use a merge table so that I can direct all new INSERTs to a
new merge table and migrate old data off the system by having a

The problem is that of I do INSERT ... ON DUPLCATE KEY UPDATE  and
that value isn't in the leading table where all INSERTs go a *new* row
will be created.

Is there any way around this problem?

What about using partitioning in MySQl 5.1+?  Would this work?
