You need to use the method. The id is saved in several places: first in
the objects as an 'id' attribute, then in the objectmanager as a key,
and as far as I know it is also stored in a special tuple in the
objectmanager which I believe is for speed considderations.
So my guess is that you can get into all kinds of trouble if you just
change the id on the object.
