On the K-5, I'd shorted out the aperture pin on the body so it would play more nicely with manual lenses.

That's what I do as well.

I also run a short script after downloading which puts f1.2 into the exif but like you, I cannot verify after the fact if actually shot at that aperture. I need some aperture info in the exif as otherwise my HDR software won't play ball and segfaults.
