AF the speed in video on DSLR with the speed of AF for photo would be fantastic. I wonder if anyone will do what Fujifilm did with a compact and put phase detect in the sensor so you get fast AF while using it.

There is nothing wonderful about fast AF speed during video... People tend to think about tracking a subject... but that is not what focus in movies is about. And imagine what film usually is about... a scene with a subject or more than one subject moving in it, it is the scene that needs to be in stable focus, not the characters moving in it. Watch a few movies to understand focus and video.
Wishing for fast AF for video seems to be a tech geek wish, not a video/film makers wish.
