Some time ago I saw a rumor about 100-300 and having f8 at long end. I'd love to see that lens someday!

f/8.0 is fine, and to be honest, I consider my 55-250mm as an f/8.0 lens.

However, I'm not sure if a lens for the M-system starting at 100mm would sell well.

Why not? If it has an appropriate size

I think for most customers it will require too many lens changes. Even the existence of the 55-200mm next to the 18-150 is somewhat questionable if you ask me.

To me the 55-200 is a "small" tele, the 18-150 is a "large" allround-lens (or superzoom, but too large for me for a regular use).
I were interested in a tele up to 300mm with an adequate M-size.
Changing lenses is no issue for me, but maybe most customers think in a different way.
