Subject: [Leica] Did Leica miss the boat on the M7 viewfinder?

From what I can tell, Leica did not use a zoom view finder on the new M7.
Was this a mistake?
Could they have ushered in a new generation of M zoom lenses?
Could they have made a zoom viewfinder that would have been backwards
compatible with existing lenses?
It seems to me that a new M number would be a good time to take this quantum
leap.
