It might be. But it certainly isn't (1) blatantly obvious to the casual 
observer [or SQL neophyte] and (2) in the V4RB Reference Manual.

Might want to add a call that it's a bit more easily recognized, e.g., 
curs.Field("rec_id").Value and put it in the reference manual under 
Class VCursor. Or curs.GetRecID(), as in the Class VBaseObject.
