Is it possible to obtain auto-generated IDs when writing data using
DBOutputFormat?

For example, is it possible to write Mapper which stores records in DB
and returns auto-generated
IDs of these records?

Let me explain what I am trying to achieve:

I have data like this
<key, (value,value,value)>

which I would like to store in normalized for in two tables. First
table will store
keys (string). Each key will have unique int id auto-generated by mysql.

Second table will have (key_id,value) pairs, key_id being foreign key,
pointing to first table.

Sincerely,
Vadim
