> It is not possible to insert a specific value in a column defined as identity. This makes it very hard to migrate from other RDBMSs or to import data dumped from other databases. 
> For example, an autoincrement column in MySQL should be an identity column. The problem is that when the data is dumped from MySQL to a file, it generates inserts with values. These values cant be inserted in the Derby table. 
> Posible solutions: 1. being able to "generate by default as identity" 2. being able to disable the "identity" feature for a column 3. being able to generate a column as non identity and after data is populated, alter table to add the "identity" to the column.
