I'm afraid the last is incorrect. Zeiss Biogon 21mm's and OM 21mm's
have trebled in value because of the Canon 1Ds mkII and the poor
performance of the Canon EF wide-angle lenses on that body.
Of course, the vast majority of these lenses have passed on, rarity
is part of the reason the value has gone up.
Don't overstate the importance of something like this.
You are talking about a number that is so statistically insignificant
that it may as well be zero (no one).
Sort of like the number of people that feel ripped about Pentax and
their DSLR compatability "issue".
Once a number falls below a certain threshold, it may as well be zero.

While the number of these is relatively low, the users are quite
obvious, given their use of the second most expensive 35mm based Digital
SLR on the market (Leica R Digital users having the most expensive after
you count both body and back). A lot of visible pro's are in this category.
