The new Nikkor 35 1.8G DX lens - also on FF in 5:4 mode?

Update: It looks like the 35 1.8 works inofficially in 5:4 mode also on fullframe DSLRs. See this discussion and this link.
Nikon introduced the first DX prime lens with built in focus motor today. The 35 mm 1.8G DX AF-S is a replacement for the traditional 50 mm normal lenses on film SLRs and can thanks to the ultra sonic focusing auto focus also on the small D40/60 series cameras which lacks focus motor. The FOV is the same as a 50 mm on a SLR, due to the 1.5 x crop factor of the DX format. Nikon has also managed to keep the positive factors of a classic normal lens, despite some optical challenges. The factors are low price, compact format, excellent image quality, wide aperture and better subject isolation than with the common slower zoom lenses, thanks to less DOF.
While it seems to be easy to design good tele lenses for cropped formats, fast wide and normal lenses is another story. Look for instance at the Sigma 30 1.4 HSM, which is far larger and more expensive than a 50 mm 1.4 for 35mm/FF. The new 35 1.8 Nikkor weighs only 200 g. And compared to the currently smallest normal lens for cropped formats, the 25 2.8 pancake lens from Olympus and the 4/3 system, the Nikkor 35 1.8 DX is 1 1/3 stop faster and has an even larger advantage in DOF-control (more than two stops). This is the most attractive feature for me personally, to ablility to get a look with more depth, reminding of 35 mm film images. Click here to see a good example from Nikon.
(The 35 1.8 is not the first DX prime. Several years ago Nikon introduced the 10.5 DX fisheye lens, but it has the screwdrive type of autofocus, which does not work on the D40/60 series, which are Nikons volume sellers.)
So, an exciting addition to the DX family, although I would have prefered a fast 24 mm DX prime, since 35 mm was the focal length I used as a normal lens in the film days.
