It is very possible Pentax has taken a brilliant approach to the AF speed issue.
IF the trap focus feature speeds up the AF to somewhere near the speed of the Canon 40D we will have the best of both worlds. This could prove to be one of the biggest features of the K20D but we need to see some test first. The accuracy of the K10D and a second mode with the speed of the 40D would be ideal.
BTW, Let me compliment you on how you have toned down your rhetoric.
