"Enable AF" has been added to the Shutter Button Setting. It is now possible, when the shutter button is pressed halfway, only the AF is locked without locking the AE. /source/
This is something I was deeply missing in my street photography shooting, when I was sometimes overexposing photos because of half-pressing too early while still pointing the camera downwards thus locking a wrong exposure of a darker area. This new option is a huge relief!
