Just go join M43 and make a K-mx camera with newly designed Limited pancakes!
Make it even smaller! and of course nice metal built with decent IQ.
It's not too late to open a new market with Olympus.

Wow. interesting old thread.

I would be for a classic retro digital that was MF only. Manual focusing the dSLR even with the magnifying eye-piece isn't as accurate as focusing a k1000, k2 or SuperProgram or Spotmatic F. That is why I would be for one. They could either do an all new camera or do a retrofit back kit which as been mentioned several times in this thread and is very feasible.

Whatever happened to the alleged Cebu k1000d project?
