The way I see it there would be two advantages:
1. any existing lens would effectively become a DG lens, great for dslr users.
2. you could leave it the camera all the time, which would be a big help with regards to the issue of dust on the sensor.

No doubt my idea is hugely flawed...
How about a zoom teleconverter for use on prime lenses? but then, it'll probaby cost more than the lens itself.
