The front cap on my Nikon version of the 10-20 lens was junk and I replaced it immediately -- just an outer edge pinch that you couldn't remove if the hood was on. The pentax version came with a much nicer one, comparable to the pentax and nikon brand lens caps.
I dunno if I'm the only one who does this or if it's common, but I use a little piece of safety/skateboard tape on each side of the inner pinch part of my lens caps, to make them really easy to remove - no slipping on the plastic, and you don't need a solid grip.
