Point taken. I see the Product Managment mavens in Solm providing an
LCD in addition to an optical viewfinder.
So if they do, I'd want one that can tilt several directions if only to
avoid sunlight while viewing and manipulating menus.
If it still uses the R8/9 (or even better) viewfinder, that would be
grand.

Isn't that why viewfinder right angle attachments were
invented a half century ago?
If the one for my R8 fitsthe R10, I don't even have to
buy another!
