Not only is it NOT a clear winner, it would totally defeat the Continuous mode or be nearly impossible to implement.
Shutter does NOT recock until you release the button on S mode and then does the total fire/recock on C mode.

To my thinking the M8 simply does not have the base memory to implement some of the features listed in the various threads on this board. I think that is why the fixing of the white balance took so long, they had to rewrite the firmware to make room for the WB changes (which in MHO is very good now).
