Since a PC is not a camera, what would you adjust when you adjust exposure during RAW conversion? Sure you change neither aperture nor shutter speed! I've always thought you change ISO sensitivity.
I can be wrong, but I bet that such a feature is what Pentax is claiming here. If so, who cares of in-camera RAW conversion?
