What's the rationale for that? It's the primary key; why should it be  
forbidden to view it, even for derived classes?

(For a Bioperl-db persistent object, the primary key is public and  
always accessible as $pobj->primary_key(). It can even be changed by  
the programmer, though of course you should know what you're doing  
when you decide to do that.)
