It actually happens to quite a few K-5s, the camera totally jams and the LCD stays on even if you switch it off. As you found out the only way to cure it is take the battery out (very annoying if you have a grip attached because you have to take that off as well).
Just add it to the list of K-5 "quirks"
I dare not say quality issues as Pentax rarely has those.

I hope it does not comply with the trade descriptions act.

They also seemed to think that a dodgy lens on a TC was better than an equivalent length zoom, which was better than a prime. They also "knew" that the cheaper a lens is, the better it is.

A filter does not absorb any significant impact energy. What it does is stores it then releases it very suddenly and probably fires sharp glass fragments at the lens.

Nice to see rocket blowers - work of the devil - get a panning.

I don't like them.
I nearly died in one.
