Found it at http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/GEOS-386, it just took a while. So 
you can use datastore.setExposePrimaryKeyColumns(true) and it works.

I'm still confused as to why a new sequence was created for the fid in the 
first place, considering that Oracle is providing a primary key.

What about within Geoserver though; could there be some option to have it show 
primary keys as normal feature attributes?
