Can someone explain Ticket #1096?

RE: fluxbb.org/development/core/tickets/1096/

I have been beating my head against the wall trying to figure out what this ticket is claiming a problem to be. Can Anyone explain what breaks with auto-increment that has anything to do with user IDs ?

The installer relies on the auto_increment functionality and assumes the newly created guest user will receive the ID 1. The rest of the application expects that to be the ID of the guest account.

On a multi-master setup, this might not be true.

That explains "what" its about .... is there an explanation as to "why" any of this is a problem?

FluxBB won't work in that setup, as it makes assumptions about the state of a newly created database that won't hold.
