[Apc-aa-coders] Inserting Views with out-of-sequence ids

[Mitra <mi...@ea...>]

As part of importing / exporting, I've got a problem with shortids.

Lets take views for example - they have shortids which are an 
auto-increment field,

When I import from one system to another, I want to add an offset to 
avoid clashes, for example I might add 1000 so that I can a) do it in 
emacs and b) understand the result and fix mistakes.

Will this cause problems with the autoincrement field in any way? For 
example there might be views 1-10 and 1001 -1024, so will the next 
auto-incremented view by 11 ? And what happens when it 
auto-increments to 1000?

I could probably write a bunch of tests for this, but wondered if 
anyone already had done so?
