Playing the devils advocate ....an articulated LCD could do the same.

If the LCD had integral pop up sides that gave shade to the screen it would closely mimic the old wlf.

Of course, using live view as the regular viewer would tax current battery life.

Thought I was the only one that still liked a wastelevel view. This is a D5100 and a shade that is held on with a rubber band. It works quite well if the light isn't to bright, depands on the LCD. Note the battery grip that holds 2 cells. The magnifier is in the LCD. Any camera with a fully articulating LCD can be used this way as the shade etc. are all available on ebay.
