Subject: [Leica] M8.2 shutter upgrade with no delayed re-cock

It could be a marketing thing, it is much more likely to be a hardware item, 
such as a hardwired switch connection on a pcb, which makes it impractical. 
I am pretty sure that were it to be feasible it would be a chargeable 
upgrade item.
