If we set lookup by id and try to import records it will create new record with id that we set in import file. It ignores sequences of ids in database.
That will lead to 'ERROR: duplicate key value violates unique constraint' in future.

I don't think import by id is feasible due to the issues you note.

In some projects I created a column called import_key and set it to increasing numbers in the CSV file so I can import batches of rows several times in a deterministic way.

I added a note about this in the README.
