Description
After a fresh install of 6.2, create the second user (you have already the user/1), and this user will be the user/3. So user/2 is just missing (page not found).

#1
This is a known issue caused by a quirk of MySQL when dealing with auto-increment fields. Aside from the gap in the sequence it is not actually a problem.
#2
But shouldn't this known issue be documented in the install process so that these issues aren't continued? I'll work a patch once I get back to development in June.
#3
subscribed
#4
Then it's a documentation issue. I'd suggest a mention in INSTALL.txt or something.
#5
Has anyone tested if this is an issue on PostgreSQL. If we're going to document this properly, we should mention which database systems are affected. If it's only with MySQL then we'd document it as such.
I'll see if I can test postgreSQL but I've never used it before.
