That said, a larger diameter lens mount could offer

can't see Canon building a body that is truly
incompatible with it's existing lens line. The cost of
building a second full line of lenses with a new mount
(even if they were identical to existing lenses in all
other respects) would be pohibitively high, especially
given the low volume of sales for a body like the 1Ds
MKIII.
Seems that it would in a large way kill sales for the MK III since none of the lenses in a shooter's kit would fit. Why buy a new camera body if my multi thousand dollar investment in glass won't be usable......

My two cents......
