+1, with a tiny quibble

Options:

1. R: do you want the ball? If yes, they must decline FM and we check with K; if no, double foul, replay the down (rekick).

2. If R declines FM: K chooses whether to accept the penalty for R's foul. Ordinarily they'll take the penalty, which is enforced from either the end of the run or the spot of the foul (ABO, as kdf5 said), depending on whether the foul occurred beyond the end of the run.

Tiny quibble: if R wanted to extend the period with an untimed down, they wouldn't give K a chance to end the game: they'd accept the penalty for K's foul, create a double foul situation, and we'd play one untimed.
