Well the documentation makes no mention of any limitation on returning and the observed behaviour has consistently been that returning is in values order. Again, that was SQLAlchemy's fault for assuming this (but the docs surely did not help). Also re-reading my reply, I've made a typo there, sorry. What it should have read is: The problem here is not having the returned ids in a particular order, is that there is apparently no correlation with the position of an element in the values clause with the id generated. Of course sorting the returned ids is only viable when using a serial or identity column, that's why in the general case I've mentioned the insert with sentinel column to ask if there are better or alternative solutions.
