I may be wrong but I don't believe after a duplication the auxiliary
db's backups done under the old dbid have a status of "DELETED". I think
they are still "AVAILABLE". At least that's what "list backup" reports
(after jumping through a few hoops to get it to even be able to list
them). And I want them hanging around for a while in case I have to fall
back to one of them. After all isn't that point of taking a backup in
the first place?

Also I don't want to unregister the database. That would delete all of
the backups for the old dbid. I want them kept until they are older than
30 days (which is my configured retention period).

These are exactly the reasons why I *want* to be able to reset the dbid
to the original one. To simplify administrations of backups on a test
db, in noarchivelog mode, who's backups will always be done offline, and
where I want to use a simple "delete obsolete" to manage the old backups.
