I am implementing an AppFabric Service Bus ISignalBus / IMessageStore and SignalR's reliance on sequential is the one blocker to a relatively straightforward implementation.
Any message store that doesn't support auto incrementing ids is going to require some sort or slave/ master set-up for generating ids this reduces scalability and reliability.
Is there any scope for moving to Guids and using some other means for message ordering?
