"now we should see a possible slide around dividend pay date 7th jan 2015"
I think the dividend pay date is not relevant. The relevant date as far as the dividend payment is concerned is 12 December, according this press release
If you held the shares at 12 December you get paid a dividend in respect of the 2014 FY, even if you sold the share the next day, assuming you were the still on their records as the shareowner on 16 December.
It will be nice when the institutions start buying up MLX. I do not think that MLX has yet been included as part of the GDXJ fund. That could take another 12 months or so.
