Just for fun: Along with the mk2, what EF-M lens should Canon release?

Just for fun, what 1 lens type should Canon release, along with the (rumored) M mk 2?

I'm assuming here all are M mount and all are STM lenses when possible (not sure if the pancakes can be STM??)

For those who want really fast zooms in M mount, like 17-55 2.8 in M mount, or 50-135 2.8, I've created one category at the bottom, as I really don't think Canon will release lenses that would compete with their bread-and-butter, money generating lenses.

If you want something else, feel free to add in a reply, but put the lens you'd prefer in the subject line, so everyone can see it easily enough.

Kit telephoto in M mount: perhaps 40-150, or 55-250. Small and lightweight, meaning also slower aperture (4-5.6 or at best 3.5-5.6)
