Answer
The Panasonic Lumix line uses lenses designed by Leica. I'm not totally sure if Leica provided the lenses but what is sure is that those lenses adhere to the very strict superior standards of Leica. Considering that Leica is the highest revered brand in the industry, that "L" would certainly increase the intrinsic value of the Panasonic camera.

It's the same thing with Sony. They have an entirely separate compatible lens line-up from Carl Zeiss. Samsung uses lenses labelled Schneider Kreuznach (did I get that right?) which are actually rebadged Pentax originals.
