I agree.  This is an undocumented feature.
I am fairly experienced and some would even say knowledgable.
I would not have recommended NAT on the box based on my experience with
poor NAT response rather than the specific bug.  
So I don't think this is a valid response to the problem.
Cisco should document this 'feature' better.

Am I the only one to find that sort of remark a bit nasty?

While not sporting any nice certificates, I consider myself to be somewhat 
experienced with Cisco platforms, and Cisco architecture - and if a prospective 
customer would have asked me "will NAT and netflow work together?" I would have 
checked the documentation, would not have found anything about that conflict 
either, and would have said "no problem there".

After all, on other Cisco platforms netflow is used as well to help NAT 
(netflow feature-acceleration), and of course, the corresponding flow records 
get exported properly afterwards.
