Description

Hi,

I was recently setting up a project to use ACLs, and found the docs for Postgresql mentioning that the JdbcMutableAclService needed to be configured for the ID queries (in the database-schema page).
When I switched the DB to MS SQL Server (2014), I found that it also needed to be configured to use 'select @@identity' for the ID queries.
Does this seem right? Should this also be added into the docs?

Cheers,

Matt

Research direction

Start with the database-schema page and the PostgreSQL ACL documentation, then check how JdbcMutableAclService is configured for ID queries with Microsoft SQL Server 2014. Confirm whether select @@identity is required and document the SQL Server-specific configuration alongside the existing PostgreSQL guidance.
