My Nikon SB15 lit the flash ready signal on Nikon FM/FE bodies way  
back in the 1970s.

Lighting the flash ready signal is not the same as responding to the  
body's flash control protocol for  Flash EV Compensation, setting the  
exposure time and lens opening automatically, allowing HSS, etc, that  
are what a "dedicated" flash unit would imply. What Bill was looking  
for was a flash that would do those dedicated features while using  
its in-built Auto Flash sensor system, bypassing the P-TTL flash  
metering.

Perhaps the Metz units will do that with the right SCA module, but I  
haven't seen any proof of that yet.
