Re: getLastInsertId diff

$this->model_name->id is according to the API:
* Value of the primary key ID of the record that this model is
currently pointing to.
* Automatically set after database insertions.
So that may or may not be the last inserted record

$this->model_name->getLastInsertId(); appears to do exactly what it
says, get the last inserted id.
Looking at the Model class, getLastInsterId() fetches a private
property of the class, not the property id.

Don
