As a consumer here is what I would like Canon to do. Do not make the RF mount "open", that is - no need to make the lens protocols available. However, at the same time do not actively block third parties from entering the market by updating firmwares or filing patent lawsuits. Just be agnostic. Let the third parties do what they can by reverse engineering. And also make it clear to your customer base that you will not be liable for any issues with third party lenses.

Also I expect mid level lenses from Canon at reasonable price points. Mid level lenses = not L quality RF lenses, but then not overly reliant on digital corrections.
