The current situation appears stable for now. I don't know of any changes on the horizon.

To some extent it is for your own good. Compared to KFX, The older KF8 (azw3) format is superior for archival and conversion since it better reflects the internal structure of the book as sent to Amazon by the publisher. Though the difference between them in actual readability is slight.

A calibre plugin already exists that can convert from KFX to other formats, but it is hampered by lack of support for KFX in the most commonly used DRM removal software. And all KFX books come from Amazon with DRM.
