A plea to Olympus: Exposure compenastion in manual mode on the E-M5

Ive never felt the need for this option, although i can see it may be useful in certain circumstances.

I would be happy having the option, providing it can be disabled when not required.

My panasonic gh2 "does" use auto iso in M mode, although this is with video only.

Coming from a generation where M meant fully manual {and as someone who remains fully manual today...apart from AF}, i immediately set my gh2 to M when i first aquired this camera {assuming M meant M, in the traditional sense}, and proceeded to ruin some unrepeatable video footage.

Fortunately a couple of chaps on this forum pointed out this problem {the handbook was a bit vague}, and i now use the other Manual mode for video.
