BD: I think you mean the lens produces the angle of view you want.... and of course the F-stop for desired DOF.

Digital, analog or somewhere in between, it is not an issue of FL in itself, rather one of angle of view, DOF, and image quality.  Right now, analog is supreme.  What might happen when Leica produces a digital camera with further interpolated ( or whatever you want to call the made up dots ) images remain to be seen.  If it is 1 year away, and they just announced their plans, WHO CARES?    It all seems rather pointless....... wake me up when it is available ..... or is that "if"?
