Until somebody at Canon / Nikon / Fuji or whoever figures out
a way to have a separate ccd that would enable live preview...

Instead of the mirror have a CCD or CMOS chip?

Won't work - the image isn't in focus at the mirror. It would need to be
where the focus screen currently is.

That's what I said further down.

Well, I used to have a twin-lens reflex that I held upside down over my
head and framed shots over the heads of the madding crowds. But, it wasn't
digital.

:-) Instead, I went with the Pentax 67 SLR, which still gives me the
120/220 film, but in 6x7 format. Really whopping film frames.
