Sounds good.
As long as a sequence can point to more than
one table/column combination.
Or, I guess, you can have the relationship 1-1 for
the SERIAL type, but this should not prevent using
sequences across more than one table if you don't use SERIAL.
I often use a sequence for 3 or more tables in a system
so that I can use 'generic' functions on the tables
and produce reports without conficting primary keys..
