Are there any plans for a test of the 24L II on APS-C?

A 24LII on a APS-C is effectively a 35mm f/2.2 lens on FF.
So instead of paying $1500 to get the same effect, why not put $1200-1250 towards a FF body (even a used 5D) and get a 35mm f/2 for $300 or an even sharper 28mm f/2.8 for $250?
You'll get an automatic 1 stop aperture upgrade for all your other full frame lenses this way too <img src='http://forum.photozone.de/public/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/wink.gif' class='bbc_emoticon' alt='
