K-x won't stop-down meter while using extension tubes?

yes the foil works all the time but why do we have to do it?
I did e-mail Pentax AU couple of times asking for firmware upgrade and/or add to menu stop-down metering and auto-focus on/off.
there is very similar problem with using Pentax-F 1.7x AF teleconverter with old K and M42 lenses, when you attache to it old K lens with silver base ( large enough to short all contacts and conductive) - all fine.
when you attache the lens with black anodised mount - need to use foil.
when you attache M42 lens with Pentax M42/K adaptor - need to use foil.
maybe this group should put some global pressure on Pentax to implement those necessary changes ASAP!
kind regards
