What's ABP?

At least it's close enough to say something, at least the diaphragm is placed further back with the DFA.

Besides that most photos are under an account name so I don't think you should worry too much. They aren't able to steal from flickr and sites like that.
I think Eneloops retain 80% or so after 1 year (if unused of course)
When you look up some tests eneloops are around 75% after 6 months and hold that charge for almost the end of the year. Normal NIHM are at 20% or lower after 6 months but for the first 3 weeks the extra capacity of the normal NIMH is enough to give them the edge. after that the Eneloops are better.

Depends on your usage really.
If you're going to be using a flash very heavily in a single session, go for the highest capacity you can find.
If you're going to use it a bit, leave it for a few weeks, use it a bit, leave it, etc. Go for something with Eneloop technology.
As wedding and freelance photographer i'm sure you deplete them at least monthly so normal NIMH would be a better option.
You can also get NiZn batteries but I've not yet found them in Europe but they seem to be perfect for your flash because of the higher voltage they charge your flash a bit faster.

It gets really crazy when using with a power-pack, it's almost a instant recharge link

You may want to do a "Reset all settings" on the K-7 to get it back to factory default...
It's not a reset but if you find that didn't make a difference you can "check" the box again to turn your custom settings on.
And here is another question, what's your flash compensation set to?

Other than that I'm just taking the 35mm DA Limited and the 77mm Limited. I'll use a Lowe DSLR case with a lens case clipped on.
Now getting slight niggles. If I miss ONE lens, which would it be?

I use both Firefox and Opera. Firefox I like better because one can use it with those nice script and flash filters.

It could be they improved the way the light hit the sensor, I believe they said the DFA was optimized for digital. Digital sensor like to have the light fall on the sensor as straight as possible.
