Over on the Dysfunctional Idiotic Pentax Site, there is a thread going on about how Pentax MUST support teleconverters or lose all credibility in the marketplace. I ran a little test yesterday with an M200/4 and 2X-S converter and confirmed what I recall discovering when the K10 came out, which was that shake reduction still does work very well, even if it doesn't have the precise focal length dialed in. I suppose that to make the DIPS happy they could put a multiplication factor option into the SR setup function, but my own cursory experience with TCs and SR indicates it isn't necessary.
