Boris,

It would be for a mirrorless camera, so it wouldn't be a retrofocus
design (thus the rear element protruding into the "mirror" box.

Oh, I don't expect Pentax a.k.a. king of backward compatibility to produce
K-01-only lens. That is something that can be imagined, but can probably not
be imagined to come true, you know.
I'd say Pentax is the *Queen* of compatibility; Nikon is the King. But
yes, most things related to Pentax are hard to imagine, even if they
do actually happen.

You forget that Nikon built an entire series of lenses that would cause damage to either the lens, camera or both it mounted on the wrong series camera body. The only time Pentax even came close to that was back in the screw mount era, (pre-Spotmatic), and even then it was only one lens IIRC. Sure the aperture simulator is gone but at least no Pentax produced K mount lens will damage any Pentax manufactured K mount body or vice versa.
