Ok, cool. So... can key be something else? Or should I assume that "key" is a synonym for "_id"?

When querying a view, the key may not be (is very likely to not be) the same as the document id. In a view with a reduce function, there isn't a document id per result because the result is a combination of documents.

Have a look here:

specifically the view api.
