Standard procedure iMHO should be: 1) Put X3 in park 2) All doors unlock.

On our Tahoe and ML350, both unlock all when put in park.
I see it vey differently and would never buy a car that did that. Unlocking the doors on park can be an extremely dangerous thing. Perhaps convenient much of the time, but in the instance where you don't want that to happen and can't stop it, you're hosed.

A suggestion: When you put the car in Park, your hand is just below the central locking button. Perhaps make it a habit of "park button to unlock button" and it'll be almost like your previous vehicles?
