The Pentax 1.7x AF adapter does alter the maximum aperture information;
it shows my 300/2.8 wide open as f4.5

But it's the exception; I don't know of any other TCs that do this.  A
full AF TC, with the digital signal pin contact, is unlikely to be able
to change aperture information; Pentax haven't released a specification
for how lens-to-body digital signals are encoded.
