I would imagine most of the clergy 50 and over will not celebrate it. However, I read somewhere, and cannot remember that 50% of seminarians wanted to celebrate the Tridentine Mass. If someone could point me in the right direction or clarify it would help.

I would agree.
As far as a Diocesan escape clause, that would probably only be invoked in problem areas. Some have taken to protest and confrontation with the Bishop, and in those areas, I can see a Bishop not wanting to encourage certain groups.
I am not sure where Churches of the various Orders would stand, would they be affected? Could Franciscans allow a 1962 Missal Mass, unless the Provence forbade it?

Hmm, I would think it WOULD be the clergy over 50 who would want to return to the Latin mass. They must all remember it from their childhood, along with the Latin songs (O Salutaris Hostia, Tantum Ergo Sacramentum). Why do you think they wouldn't?
