Simon,
The PD is xml, it is fairly easy to retrieve, make a Document out of it and retrieve e.g. via xpath the required fields. The change you want will most likely not be done before jBPM 4.
npe: in that case the other solution will indeed not work. Generating xml from the PD object is not supported anymore (jpdlxmlwriter is deprecated)

Yes, no xml. And yes, you can always use an additional table in the same database, retrieve data and set variables via the api.
