We all know bad stuff happens when you run out of ids in a column. Sometimes it happens in unexpected ways.
Like http://www.theregister.co.uk/2010/10/12/bi_tagging/ for instance. That 2.1 billion limit just happens to be the upper limit on a signed INT column... (32 signed int, caps at 2,147,483,647)
Never let us forget the expected data size in any column!
