Since the patched ZMySQLDA only uses _mysql (the C interface part used by
MySQLdb), you should be able to get the info you want from db.insert_id(),
where db is the database connection object. Note that this will return a
long integer. I don't know how you would incorporate this into ZMySQLDA,
however. (The above method now works on MySQLdb connection objects as
well, as of 0.1.2.)
