Comment 2 for bug 1124106

Well, yes, I know that 0 in an auto-inc field is not good style, but sometimes developers tend to have "brilliant" ideas :-) Nevertheless, I as the DB-Admin need to take care of things like this (which need to work, even if they are "not recommended") ... and thats the obvious reason, why the standard Mysql dumper has this a "buil in feature".

Now in the case of mydumper/myloader its irrelevant how its technically solved. And I completely agree, that it might be better to keep the dumps themselves clean (on the other hand even now there are already two setting written into them ...so). So it might be better to leave this ti myloader ... either as default behavior, or something we can "activate" via a simple command line setting.
