Canon Full-Frame PZ Lenses Could Be on the Horizon

I can understand there's a real demand for such lenses.
Yet, I hope Canon do not forget that there's also one for TSE, Astro UWA, Telezooms, 180 macro, luminous standard zooms.
I'm suffering from object-less GAS. :cry:

On the G1Xiii I do like using the power zoom in it pre set focal length mode, so I can just jump 24, 28, 35 (equiv) etc and see what I’m at in the viewfinder. Also I have one of the custom modes configured to set the zoom at 35, so as soon as I switch the camera on its immediately a 35mm one. Works well for me.

I always lusted for a 15-60 f/4 for APS-C with premium IQ and good closeup range (1:3 or 1:4). If the 20-60 f/4 will come to live it would be a good substitute - 32-96mm equiv would be fine. Better: On an R6 ii it is a 20-60 & in crop mode a 32-96 giving a wide range of possible applications! If zooming would be available with the canon smartphone app, it is possible to do zooms without touching (and shaking) the camera!

I think a full-frame 20-60 F/4 if priced right would end up in my kit eventually as a smaller walkaround zoom on vacation and for video uses - a 20-50 F/4, which gives a little bit of ultra-wide and stays a little longer, would also be nice.

24-50 could be a candidate, but I do think 16-35 would just be a little bit too short on the long end for me to use as a general video lens. 16-35 would be great for small gimbal stuff, which I'd guess would be good for vlogging but I'd like to see something that could give more of a medium shot with a mild amount of zoom.
