Arrggh! Then why is the option there! :-(

Other database engines do support it.

While we're on the topic, how would one implement 'auto-increment' and ensure that the field is unique?

You might consider simply using the _rowid field that all REAL Database tables have anyway. It auto-increments and is guaranteed to be unique.
