Is id_map still necessary to preserver references when using

I read this in the docs (
http://web2py.com/books/default/chapter/29/06/the-database-abstraction-layer#CSV--all-tables-at-once-
):
When importing, the new records will be appended to the database if it is
not empty. In general the new imported records will not have the same
record id as the original (saved) records but web2py will restore
references so they are not broken, even if the id values may change.
This does not have any explicit mention of using the id_map parameter, so
is it still necessary to preserve the references between tables?

I was wondering why this is not included in the documentation of web2py?
Is this on the 'todo' list or is there another reason why it is not
included?

[web2py] Re: import_from_csv_file and id_map={}
I agree.
The problem is lack of manpower. If you send me a paragraph I will include
it in the docs.
