> **(medium)** `getReference(T entity)` only extracts the PK when
> `pkFields.length == 1`; for composite/IdClass/EmbeddedId entities `pk` stays
> null and the call fails downstream with a misleading "null pk"
> IllegalArgumentException. Also `entity.getClass()` (line 2657) may be a
> runtime subclass without direct metadata. Could composite ids be supported
> via `broker.getObjectId`, or at least fail with an explicit "composite id not
> supported" message?
