Fair enough.  Given that, I'd have two suggestions:

1. Deprecate id() in favor of db_id() or somesuch, so that there's no 
confusion that it takes a DB-level view, not an object-level view.

2. Add a separate method, say key() or key_value(), which returns the
"object-level" primary key value, since this is what the outside world 
should deal with (the point of Class::DBI being to hide the details of the 
database table).  (It follows, of course, that db_id() is Tim's one-liner
applied to the return value(s) of key().)

If that seems reasonable,  I'm happy to cons up a patch.
