The most likely thing is in the phrase "sensor management reasons" which possibly means heat. I doubt that it's a Diabolocal Plot!
Because it builds up heat with 30 second exposure it would be a great idea to do the same exposure of a 30 second afterwards for the DFS, wouldn't that just heat up the sensor more?
But it was said that the DFS is on with longer exposure because of heat build up.
That's what i find a bit strange, why force a sensor that gets warm to do DFS it will only get more warmer right?

spot, centre-weighted or Matrix?
If you're using spot than it's not uncommon you overexpose some parts of the photo
You sure about this, because all this gets comunicated with the K10D though, would be strange the K5 didn't.
Even when you use manual mode the flash comunicate, you see the the flash distance scale changes when you change the ISO or aperture of the camera.

I verified the K5/AF540FGZ combination and there does not seem to be communication in auto mode so I have to set those values myself. I don't think that it will be different with the Metz but you have to verify. I will leave zoom position on the flash out of the equation for now; it also looks that there is no communication regarding this.

In Av mode i can't set to flash to Auto or Manual with the K10D, and when the camera is in manual the zooming always work.
The numbers in Auto is another story, i believe there was a trick for that... at least if i cycle through the flash programs so go from auto and back to auto it has the correct information.
Zooming always follows the focal length regardless the mode when the zoom is set to A-Zoom.
