The 645 mount is huge and there are K to 645 adapters so there is no need at all for it....
Besides that K mount lenses are easier and cheaper then 645 lenses.
So you want a small big mount, in order to mount cheap expensive lenses?
There is no point, really, other than the thought Pentax could go mad, abandon all their decades-long hard work and their customers and re-start from scratch. Why are we even discussing this?
Btw, the "mount designed for digital" was the 4/3 - I remember all the marketing hype about it. It didn't work.
asw66, mounting K lenses on a 645 body (even 645D) means:
- heavy vignetting, only parts of the image could be used
- losing infinity focus
A 645D body with a "FF" sensor would be an epic fail, because it would use only medium format, very expensive (and not very fast) lenses.
Please, let's stop looking for "solutions" to problems that don't exist.
