Drupal 7: Do I need to share the Sequences and Authmap tables to share Users between two separate installs?

$

Can anyone help with the following?

I have two installs (separate code, separate databases) of Drupal 7.

The shared users work even sign-on via http/https, the cookie domain, shared sessions (Sessions table), shared user database (Users table), but have two outstanding issues:

1) My installations of Drupal 7 have a Sequences table. I thought that this had been dropped in D6, but it seems to be back.

Questions:

a) What is it now used for?
b) Do I have to share it in Drupal 7? Why/Why not?
c) I created the sites by duplicating the databases and code and editing settings.php. Now, having run for a while, I have slightly different numbers in the two databases. If I need to share the table, what should I do with the sequence number? Use the max of the two? Why?

2) Similar questions about the Authmap table.

Questions:

a) What is it for? I'm thinking of using Janrain, at least temporarily.
b) Does Authmap have to be shared? When using Janrain / not using Janrain?
c) Last time I looked it was empty. Is that because I'm just using Drupal's Users table so far?

Any assistance gratefully received.
