Looking at `InsertStatement.generatedKey`. Is there any particular usecase that isnt better handled by `get()` ?
With `get()` you get the correct type, while with `generatedKey` you need to `toInt()` it or similar. Asking as I would prefer to see it removed since I see some bad usages of it in our codebase.

I think that it's rather rare when you have to ask `generatedKey` in your code.
At first, if you use `IdTable.insertAndGetId` then you'll receive id value of proper type.
So I agree that `generatedKey` looks like a legacy and could be hidden from a public scope. But (as you mentioned) many people already use that field and it may be too painful to just to remove the field but we can start with depreciation.

Good to hear you agree. Deprecation seems like a good first step.
