Right now, we allow PRIMARY to auto-create an index.

Can we have something to auto-create sequences, instead of the more
complicated CREATE SEQUENCE process.

Perhaps use the data type SERIAL to autocreate a sequence. Should make
life easier for novices. We are getting too many sequence questions.
