Public bug reported:

Hi everyone,

Today I needed to tick a checkbox field on 2000+ product in OpenERP with
magentoerpconnect enabled. To do it, I used the easiest method : a CSV
export of all the products with column "Database ID", "Name", and the
field checkbox.

I modified the checkbox field to True in my OpenOffice Calc, and then I
re-imported the CSV in OpenERP.

But I had a very ugly message :

Error trying to import this record :
	track_production: True

Error message :
Line 1 : "extref.society_name.product.product_8" contains too many dots. XML ids should not contain dots ! These are used to refer to other modules data, as in module.reference_id

I should precise that I didn't try to import the column "Id". But after
this I did a CSV export with the column "Id" and I effectively get the
value "extref.society_name.product.product_8".

I don't know why I had a bug with a field that was not imported,
probably because it was the field "Id" that is relatively important for
OpenERP.

Anyway, my devs men say to me that this absolutely not normal that we
have an Id with several dots, and so there is several very bad
consequences on the CSV system. For example here, Impossible to modify a
product by update CSV.

I see in Administration / Customization / Database Structure / External Referential / Data two interesting fields  : module and XML identifier. For example with the example product, I have 
Module : product.product_8
XML identifier : extref.society_name

This quite obvious that the id is generated by base_external_referential
with the concatenation "Module"."XML identifier". But this is bad
because with this approach we have an id with several dots. I am already
surprised that only the CSV system was compromised.

What do you think?
