[Zope] ZSQL Method Question

This is how it works for MySQL:

insert into org (org_name, org_phone) values ('x', 'y')
<dtml-var sql_delimiter>
select LAST_INSERT_ID() as org_id

You have to have the select LAST_INSERT_ID call in the same query as the 
insert, and you have to have the sql_delimiter.

I assume you know that the x and y values should be <sql-var ...> types.
