I agree with you, but wouldn't it be nice to see maybe a small histogram in the top right (maybe translucent) of the view finder with your settings which are shown at the bottom of the viewfinder prior to taking the shot. All we see is the settings and a scale showing over/under/or correct exposed, and we know if we are shooting birds flying against the sky we have to use the EV and adjust to compensate for the sky. If prior to taking the shot you could see a histogram and if you are not happy with the histogram value for dark/mid tone/highlight you could make changes aperture/shutter speed/ISO on the fly. I shoot in manual mode, but I do chimp quite often to see what I am getting. With knowledge not only of your camera, but also shooting conditions you can live without a histogram preview, but I still think it would be a nice optional feature.
