They will definitely AF as-is, f/11 is fine for all DPAF, but I doubt you'll be able to add the extenders, especially the 2x, and have AF work (other than with a R5 or R6 that is).

Actually, I think you're wrong about that. Canon's official product pages for the extenders are now up, and they don't say anything about the extenders not working on R or RP.
