Cheer up Frank are you having a glass half empty day? ;-)
In fact there are 22 lens profiles in there for Leica M lenses. That
includes all of the exotics, even the new APO 50 Summicron ASPH although I
don't know how you would correct that one!
The single current lens not included is the Tri Elmar 16-18-21 and Leica
Camera themselves do not correct that one for individual focal lengths in
firmware.
Of course the R lenses are likely to be used on the new M typ 240 when it
arrives too.
Note that you can apply any lens profile to any shot so for example the
profiles for the R lenses can be used by people who have adapted them for
dSLRs as well.

Cheers,
Geoff
