Yep it's possible. Assume you want to lookup the HLSequence-object for 
the current used (fixed) field and invalidate the current used PK value 
or declare that the next sequence value has to greater than this to 
avoid duplicate PK values. Think this should work (except if an 
concurrent thread request the next value before the current thread can 
invalidate it).
