That's not too big of a deal.  Just make a redirect page for mailouts
like that. www.mydomain.com/redirect.cfm?productID=104

That's my main concern, the guy who emails a page and says, go buy this,
or check this out!  Otherwise, no one looks at the URL other than to
type in the location of your home page.  Even via search engine, it
could be 800 characters long but who cares if you just click a link to
it.

Now there *are* ways to use simpler URLs, if that really is of
importance to you. I actually include a little "shortcut" page for
sending out links to product pages so you don't have to use the longer,
more complex FB URL. It takes a link that looks like "go.cfm?id=2" and
redirects the user to the cooresponding product page. You could easily
recode this to actually include the product page directly and you could
do something similar for category and other store pages if desired. But
again, I don't know that there's really much benefit to this.
