It seems to me that shooting a fast lens stopped down a couple of stops
would give a similar viewfinder
brightness as using a zoom lens wide open, but you would have the benefit
of a generally higher contrast image to work with.
I can't believe people can't figure this out and choose to argue about it 
instead,
since we've been manually focusing zoom lenses in the f/4-f/5.6 maximum 
aperture range for a
couple of decades.
Obviously, it's doable.
