Two very decent ratings of very affordable lenses are around the corner.

The Sigmas?

No, these wouldn't be surprises I think.

Sony&Fuji 16 - 50?

The Sony? Seriously?? haha 

By the way, this is the MFT forum  ^_^

Pana 14-42II?

Well, it's affordable, compact and not so bad for a kit lens...

The Sony lens is quite bad ...

I don't expect much from the Fuji either.

Well, I saw these threads about distortion and vingneting, but IMO these pancake zooms (mean Sony or Pana 14 - 42 PZ) makes sense for the compact mirrorless. From what I saw on the net, IQ wise these two lenses should be comparable, but the design limitations are obvious as well.
