I ran into this. My use case has a JSON file with array of book objects with a key called reviews which is also an array of objects. My JSON is human-edited and does not specify IDs for either books or reviews. Because sqlite-utils does not support inserting nested objects, I instead have to maintain two separate CSV files with id column in books.csv and book_id column in reviews.csv.

I think the right way to declare the relationship while inserting a JSON might be to describe the relationship:

sqlite-utils insert data.db books mydata.json --hasmany reviews --hasone author --manytomany tags

This is relying on the assumption that foreign keys can point to rowid primary key.
