If I create an object, then save() it, potentially the object won't be 
actually persisted until sqlalchemy decides that it needs to (for 
example on flush/commit, or when some query involving Thing's table gets 
executed) which is good. But (in my opinion) the lazyness is a bit too 
lazy when it comes to autogenerated primary keys:

t = Something('foo')
session.save(t)
assert t.id is None

but if I then:

session.flush()
assert t.id is not None

My thought is that sqlalchemy should force the object to be flushed (or 
whatever must be done to determine the ID, possibly just selecting the 
next value from a sequence) when the id property is retrieved.

Thoughts?
