Difficult to see how that would improve picture quality compared to 
current 50mm cron.

The 50 cron is a most underrated lens. Optical quality on par with 
21,  35 and 90 mm ASPH (the rest of the ASPH I do not know in depth). 
Universally usable. Incredibly low price, at least for a Leica.

I am off to Poitiers, where Charles Martell stopped the advance of 
the Arabs a few hundred years ago. (Restarting the thread about going 
to war with France???)
