Something has changed in the format of KFX DRM voucher files. I leave it to those involved in the DeDRM Tools to figure out the details.

I can only guess about possible motivations for this change. One possibility is that it was done just because it was easy since KFX is still under active development. Or perhaps they are taking heat from publishers to get more serious about DRM.

It is too soon to tell whether or not they plan to go further in closing the remaining holes in their DRM.

No. It applies to all books in KFX format, even those that the publisher has indicated should be provided to customers DRM free.
