The id is a nice way to go, but what can someone do if we are talking

It is not possible to have a Class::DBI object without an ID.

It is possible to have a Class::DBI object without an id, before the
insert really takes place. From Class::DBI perldoc:
The |before_create| trigger is invoked directly after storing the
supplied values into the new object and before inserting the record into
the database. The object stored in $self may not have all the
functionality of the final object after_creation, particularly if the
database is going to be providing the primary key value.
