If you write code like this, you are already doomed. You should look
at the papers published by Scott Ambler at www.agiledata.org
One of the key rules is: "Never assign meaning to primary
keys". Torque follows these rules and yes, we don't support ID
generation as you describe.
If this is legacy data: Tough. You can always write your own ID
generator und plug it into your schema.
If this is a newly designed DB: Redesign. Your design is bad.

Go ahead and present us with patches. This is, what open source software is all about.

"Fighting for one's political stand is an honorable action, but re-
fusing to acknowledge that there might be weaknesses in one's
position - in order to identify them so that they can be remedied -
is a large enough problem with the Open Source movement that it
deserves to be on this list of the top five problems."
