Sometimes business rules require that every member of a sequence of such
things as invoice numbers be accounted for.

Speculation:
Would it be possible to log SERIAL's as they are issued? It might be
sufficient to just record the user id, though it would be more useful to
log some indication of what the number was used for (or at least whether
or not it was used at all).
