Your reporting this as a bug is not going to change it. It's not a bug. IT's how Amazon wants it done.

Actually KFX format by default is not with drm (at least not as a format, amazon only deliver it with drm).
I can create KFX ebook with Kindle Preview 3 without drm. Until the last version I was able to import ebook from Kindle PC app into Calibre and make them drm-free in KFX format (and only after that was drm-free I was converting it to epub).
So no, KFX is not drm by default as a format, is drm by default when you download any book from amazon right now.
Of course I don't like it since it is a proprietary format, but KFX and drm are two separate things. That's why KFX Input/Output exist.
