Yes we can always populate via RIH or other integration tool. An OOTB feature which could do the same will actually save the additional network call.

The D&B functionality is slightly different: it maps the id of the matched record to the entity in the data tenant. It is not the id of the current record. Sorry I misunderstood that you wanted the id of the current entity.
To get the id of a different record, you would need to create a string attribute and populate it in the process that is doing the match.

Having a OOTB functionality to auto populate Reltio Entity ID to an attribute is a good to have feature. One of the use case in my mind is merge of third party data enrichment, I believe DnB batch connector uses the same functionality.

As Gino suggests, it shouldn't be necessary as any data export or API request to get data from Reltio is going to return the Reltio Entity ID(s). Likewise, it can (optionally) be displayed in the header for any profile (just enable it in the UI Modeler by selecting the header facet).
Outside of that, if there is a compelling reason to place it in an attribute (perhaps because you want to aggregate the attribute to indicate if multiple Reltio EntityID's are consolidated). You could use Reltio Integration Hub to add the Entity ID to a profile when it is created. It should only be necessary to do so when the profile is created and not when it is updated as updates would either be applied to a non-Reltio crosswalk or to a Reltio crosswalk for which an entity ID is already assigned when the profile is created. Note here that if a profile is created from a non-Reltio source that a Reltio Entity ID is still created even if a Reltio crosswalk is not visible in the Sources screen.
For the purposes of this use case, subscribing to the ENTITY_CREATED event would catch most profiles, but if you are using the matchBeforeCreate option then it's possible a new record could get created and auto-merged without creating the ENTITY_CREATED event. It would instead generate the ENTITIES_MERGED_ON_THE_FLY event which effectively represents the Create and Merge event together.
If you are trying to capture all Entity ID's - the Merge on the Fly ones are important too because it does add an additional Entity ID - which is leveraged if the profile is ever unmerged.
