Well there was a rumour this week on Leica rumours posted earlier in the thread that Leica will be coming out with a new 28 cron. I think that is certainly a distinct possibility, but we will know more before long. The 28 cron is 15 years old and it was designed 5 years before the first Leica digital M, so I think it is safe to say it was designed to be used on film...
On the other hand, Leica may issue a \"newish\" Summicron-28 merely to replace the atrocious lens hood that the current one comes with. As for the advantages of lenses designed for digital, whatever that means, I find it hard to find a 50mm more to my liking than my 1959 DR-Summicron.

The first shot with the M9 and the second with the M-Monochrom:
