Lets just pretend that I wanted to choose the very best enlarger lens for 
35mm. Probably a 40 or 50mm. I hear very high praise for the various 
Leitz Focotar models. I have also read of a couple of Zeiss microfiche 
lenses that seem to be legendary. (so legendary that I do not know anyone 
who has ever seen one)
My own experience has been only with Nikon. 

How do the various Leitz lenses compare?
What about Schneider and Rodenstock current models?
Any others?
Whats the best for a Focomat?
