ID generation and uniqueness thereof is SOOO common, that most (all?) the DBs support it without wrapping things up in a transaction. In fact, depending on your ACID level, a transaction may or may not provide a guarantee of getting the right ID back. Thus, wrapping an insert up in a transaction is generally expensive, and potentially useless. So you probably don't want to do that, as a general rule. :-) -- Some people have a "gift" link here.
