Your participantRef points to a participant in the same model (tns prefix), but you could also point to a participant defined in a different model (i.e. different file, with a different targetNamespace).
Re the other part… sorry but the xsd defines the datatypes for ids and idrefs for standard elements. If you make them strings your model will not be schema-valid. For additional info, you can use extension elements for whatever you want, but it is not part of ‘standard’ BPMN any more. If ebxml decides it wants to use extension elements this way for role references, that could be a good way to go. The @id in your extensionElements can be any data type you like.
