Depending on the configuration of the FA sensor itself, Canon could actually do this too. They widened to AF field (something other photographers whined about to want to have) which made f8 with all AF points impossible. So maybe Canon can "add" f8 to a select number of central AF points too.

Well, the 1D series has always provided AF up to f/8 on the central AF sensor (but only this one). Widening the AF field shouldn't have any influence on this feature.
With the D4 specs out now, Canon may reconsider that feature (if still possible).
