I thought the "Slight modifications to the OM3/4" and "Bring back the
OMx"  type groups/factions/liberation fronts, also figured prominantly
in the discussion.  Other replies to this post seem to echo this as
well.

IMHO, a drop in price and or change from titanium to cheaper material
and or upgrading of metering systems of the current production OM's has
some chance of becoming reality compared to the introduction of an OM5,
especially if Olympus monitors this list.

I got a P*nt*x MZ/ZX series instead :-).  In certain situations it's
useful to have auto film advance and autofocus in the same form factor
