Welcome to my nightmare...  

As you work into this area, you will see why we decided on the 'start
over'...

However, within pdb, the way I have dealt with part of this issue is to
'push it out of the way'.  There is an option 'agorithmic rid base' that
will put all alogirthmic rids above a certain rid value.  Currently
there is no way to 'reserve' rids, and the user and group systems don't
check with each other very well (but I've added a bit to that recently,
for queries).
