Would the high speed synch capability of the Nikon SB28 flash work on the M7?

Absolutely not. No Nikon or Canon or other speedlight dedicated to any brand other than Leica R8 or M6TTL (which means the SF20 or a Metz with 3501/3502 module)will interface with the TTL electronics in Leica cameras. The SB28 will not even give you straight TTL, only the use of the external non-TTL sensor or full manual. And I remember reading that some people tried using Nikon SB's that way on M6TTL's and the camera's batteries drained right down.
