Leica S-Adapter for third-party lenses

If Leica can make something that would enable R-lens use on S-cameras (I know, this is supposedly "impossible"), I would immediately go out an buy one of these cameras.

 

Any others thinking similarly?

Michael Leibfritz makes his Lei-ko adapter for the R lenses on the S. I have one. It's really only useable on lenses with focal length at least 180mm. You may have to have your lenses adjusted at Wetzlar to allow infinity focus as well.
