If Leica think the greatest need is to replace the Noctilux, I think they are mistaken. 28mm on an M8 is not that wide and Leica has just 3 lenses out of 18 total in the range.

I'd like to see them fix the 35mm Summilux first, then introduce one or more wide-angle Elmars (18/21/24), licence the Zeiss Distagon design and Leica-ize it to produce a 16mm Elmarit and then I'd like a 28mm Summilux. So not much, really.
