Can you point to a technical discussion of why this is so?  I have only 
heard the Leica point of view.

It seems to me that if there were a good technical reason., others would 
fool the path... Hasselblad, and third party esoteric camera backs for MF 
and larger studio camera  included....

But Leica, in the M8 only, is the only believer.......

There is a perfectly sound technical reason for it to be better for the IR 
filter to be on "the other side" of the lens with rangefinder lenses.
