I would post a 'wanted' ad in the classifieds before forking out for a new one. Someone may have accumulated a spare.

I dunno sometimes. I often find I have to look at the AF mode select lever to make sure it's in place anyway. If you're going to have to take your eye off the viewfinder, better to look at the back of the camera than the front.

You need more AF points to have good AF tracking though don't you? More than the current 11, anyway!

Whatever it is, it had better be important

Now the funny highlight below the K3 logo in the pic below makes sense.

Looks a bit more elegant from the front

That looks amazingly inelegant!

When it comes to higher resolution, presumably that will only really become notable when cropping/enlarging?
The K3 needs to compete with the D7100 and others. The extra resolution may not be needed by many people and isn't a reason to upgrade from a K5ii IMHO, but '24MP is the new 16MP'.

There is room for adding more focus points and a proper tracking AF system, surely? The K5-ii may have been class leading in terms of low light sensitivity, but i don't see any reason not to continue the improvements!

I hope there's sufficient interest in this. How about meeting in Longnor, here: http://www.cobblescafe.co.uk/

I don't know if people would want to start at the crack of dawn, but I would probably be able to get there at about half-ten! And even that will require a massive effort on my part ;P
