In the Javadoc for Entity.getKey(), it says: If the entity has not yet been saved (e.g. via DatastoreService.put), this Key will not be fully specified and cannot be used for certain operations (like DatastoreService.get). Once the Entity has been saved, its Key will be updated to be fully specified.
Does this only refer to the fact that the entity might not yet have an ID or keyname? In other words, if I construct the entity with an ID or keyname, can I rely on entity.getKey() to return something I can use in a db.get(key), or is there some other part that is not fully specified until a put? Considering that you can get a full key from a KeyFactory with only a kind and keyname/ID, I'm assuming this would work, but I'd like to make sure.
