My concern is not the business key being mandatory (clearly it is not) but the lack of flexibility in its type and multiplicity.

I can easily think of a process whose instances are identified by purchase order and customer name. Even for this simple case we already push the developer to implement a custom conversion framework. Since jBPM converters already exist just for that purpose, we could throw them in at no charge.
