That is because there is no mechanism for passing ATAPI commands through to the device. If you want support for ATAPI passthrough, bug Soren about it. It'll probably mean putting some special command line option on cdrecord to select between the FreeBSD SCSI and ATAPI interfaces, since the ATAPI passthrough support won't be through CAM. For now, use wormcontrol to burn CDs with an ATAPI burner.
