Yes, if you insist upon designing the API like that, then you come to
the conclusion that you need global LOB identifiers.
However, there are many ways to design this that don't work that way.
One idea to think about is
insert into someonetubevideos values('')returning open_for_write(videocolumn)
which gives you back some kind of writable stream ID (this is a
transient, within-session ID, not global) for the target field in the
row you just inserted.
BTW, as was noted upthread by Dimitri, this whole subject has been
discussed before on pgsql-hackers. You really ought to go re-read the
previous threads.
