No the process isn't a problem...the thing is that automated HDR, where you don't control the different parameters to get it to suit your tastes looks kind of dull...as i said i have seen just one photo made with in camera HDR that i liked (i'm gonna try to find it).
Don't get me wrong, to play with or try in some difficult light conditions incamera HDR is enough but if what you want is to do an HDR to transmit something, to make the scene agree with your tastes or mood you are better off mounting the camera in the tripod and making some bracketted exposures, and then processing them in the computer with full control over the process.
you may not like the following photo but i made it to match the phrase Madrid is Hell and i could have never done anything near it with in-camera HDR:

I even find better to shoot Raw and the process out of it three different exposures to make an HDR than using in camera HDR (the post processing is what gives you all the control, and lets you shape the image to meet your desired result).
Since we're drifting off topic, and to take it back to the thread line, the incamera HDR of the Kr is more usefull since it lets you take handheld HDR images, but i'm not sure the result have changed at all...so i don't find it a crucial or even interesting feature.
