What "BMW Connector" are you referring to? the ipod connects via USB and that doesn't change.
It sounds like you're not going to be able to use it the way you want in regards to shuffle. Is it a new enough ipod that you could use BT for it?

I wonder if you could create an artist based playlist and shuffle that?

The ipod based shuffle switch has always been troublesome when controlled by another device, it's not a unique BMW issue.
