"A composition adjustment feature allows you to make minor adjustments to the composition of your image using the Shake Reduction mechanism, without having to physically move the camera. Ideal for tripod use or macro photography."
That seems to imply it just shifts left, right, up and down.
I would find this feature useful when taking pictures of products using a tripod when I want to leave only a minimal margin around the subject. It would save having to setup the tripod so precisely, or cropping.
It's obviously just a minor feature that came as a by-product of another. It probably costs vrtually nothing to provide, so it doesn't matter if you don't need it or think it's silly.

If you want to focus stack, just go ahead and do it, if you want the same feature as described in the link to automate the process a bit, get some clever bloke to write you a script!

Of course we are, we're not brand snobs. Well . . . not really . . . as long as it's Pentax.
PS: Did your colleague buy from Jessops by any chance?
Even when Jessops did stock Pentax, it was never high on their sales agenda.

Pentax (and others) need to sell new technology, not old.

Go for it, even if you do plan to by a quality zoom that includes 50mm in its range.
