What would be your thoguhts about a possible G26? This would be a G26 slide and barrel on a G19 grip.

Hmmm. I would hope they would do a Glock 19 grip with 17 slide first.
It's what the market wants. The 17 grip with 19 slide was a way to recollect funds for the MHS fiasco that they lost out on due to politics.
Them spending development money on a 19grip 3.2" barreled upper doesn't bode well for them for recouping costs with a lot of sales.
They would sell, no matter what, but like the 19x they would be 200 dollars over market value due to a lower demand than, say, a standard 19.
I agree with you, mostly. I think there is an admittedly limited market for people who like the grip of the G19 better due to hand size and placement of the hump who don't want to use magazine spacers and would like to have a shorter slide for concealment, appendix or IWB carry, and a faster draw.
What made me even think of this is the G19X which, ironically, I find not interesting due to the size of my hands. For my hands the G19 grip is the Goldie Locks Glock. Shorter is not preferred and longer is just not necessary.

A 26X could have some merits. I think a G43X would be very popular since many people who carry a G43 appendix use +2 and +3 extensions regularly.
I'd buy a G26 grip on a G19 slide.
Maybe one of these days I'll get one professionally chopped.

For those who are considering a G19 slide assembly on a G26 frame (on the left using Gen4 versions), or a G17gen5 slide on a G19gen5 frame (on the right), either can be done right now. The front end of the recoil spring assembly will show however.
This may be something to try before actually "chopping" a Glock frame's grip just in case it's not what's really wanted.

That would be even more retarded then the 19X, what we need is a 19L and maybe a 26L.
Gettin' down innagrass.
Let's Go Brandon!
