If it supports the SDXC standard, which it does, it should work in the K-3. That's an awful lot of memory. My current stable of cards are two Class 10 8gb one class 10 16gb and assorted 1, 2 and 4gb class 4 cards "just in case", I don't think I'd need all of them if I shot a wedding. I seldom fill one of the 8gb cards let alone the 16 with the K-5II recording in RAW. I suppose you might need that much if you were shooting a lot of movies...

Would this be supported in the K-3? I looked through the manual, but I
didn't find anything that told me if there was a maximum capacity the
K-3 could support.

It just says:

    *SD Memory Card, SDHC Memory Card, and SDXC Memory card.
    *Eye-Fi Card
    *Flucard compatible with this camera

Not affordable now, but the price will inevitably fall into reasonable
territory some day. Sixty-four GB cards are under $100 now-a-days.

I'm actually thinking in terms of what capacity cards I am theoretically
going to want sometime near the end of the year 2015. By then I hope to
have a Pentax DSLR that could use that kind of capacity.

If memory serves, the first CF card I bought for my *ist-D back in early
2004 was 256MB & cost something around $100. Within 6 months the first
affordable (i.e. < $100) 1GB cards were available from B&H.
