Ah sorry for adding to the confusion then, I misunderstood.
Interestingly, older sensors quite often used CYM sensor sites rather than
RGB. There was a shift toward "primary" colour sensor arrays however,
generally because they were considered to give more accurate representations
of colours.
It is an interesting question, however. There are certainly some cases
where I'd trade off colour accuracy for high ISO capability; though with
cameras like the K5 this is becoming less of a requirement.
In an ideal world, I'd like to be able to change the bayer array
electronically, even remove it for B&W. But I can't see that happening.

I've never heard of an XYZ colour space transform. I just used XYZ
as names for what the sensor elements might be sensitive to in a
different sensor design.
