The way I do it is to have a global sequence called 'objects' that spits
out 64-bit values, and then EVERY TABLE has a 64-bit field called
object_id, which defaults to nextval('objects') if I don't specify it.
So, on every table no matter what, I could do:
1. select nextval('objects');
2. INSERT data (comming from another layer, but set object_id to the
value I got in #1)
3. SELECT * FROM the same table where oid = what I just selected in #1
