All three sound interesting.
Do you want generate traffic in this new groups? ;-) Anyway, there is a rumor that Sony changed their Nex roadmap. There should be six new lenses this year.

Sony needs two more Zeiss primes to compete with Fuji.
And a 60mm or 70 F/2.8 1:1 Macro OSS for serious macro users. Or maybe a F/2.0 1:2 Macro

Is a native macro really so important? You can adapt so many cheap MF macros. I think most important are cheap small zooms(like the power zoom from panasonic), primes and pancakes, and quality zooms. In this order. I put quality zooms last because they would be big.
Regarding the lens setup Sony is somehow hard to understand.
At least within the APS-C scope.
Since the beginning of NEX5 there is the pancake (which is obviously rubbish), the kit 18-55 and the 18-200.
Apparently all focal lengths are covered.
Now, what does the enthusiast wish for? A replacement for the pancake, a prime and a protrait lense.
What do they come with? A more or less useless macro (in focal length point of view), a HQ Zeiss with a focal length which is neither fish nor fowl and a 50mm/1,8 which is too long as prime and too short as portrait.
