Sure but protocols and interfaces are IEEE standards and interpretation on both sides happens the same way, which is not true for cameras.

Do you really think that would work?? you're assuming that Pentax and Nikon cameras are electronically identical?? serious?
This is pure sci-fi.
Cameras are computers and no way an algorithm designed for the way Nikon cameras communicate and react to the electronics in their flashes and their camera metering would work on another camera designed in a completely different way, firmwares are proprietary, closed source and not standard, so this is not going to happen.
As far as I'm concerned, I agree with David Hobby, TTL, whatever it's called, will never work perfectly, simply because there is no "correct" exposure in the flash world, the only correct exposure is the one where light does what you want it do do, and a camera will never be able to read your brain.
So instead of letting an engineer in Japan 30 years ago decide what your flash exposure should be, turn to M mode and live happy.
