 Or maybe a way to disable the static incrementor.

 doing so will make our tests more fragile by causing insert failures when
 a prior test fails to clean up after itself.

 I did not say so, what I mean is that right now there's no way to setup
 test-specific fixtures with the factory, and I believe there are use cases
 for it.

 Thanks for consideration, hopefully there are patches for 4.5, right now I
 will just revert to 4.3 then.
