Suspension commuter?

Hey everyone. saw an image of a really cool road/hybrid bike that had a suspension fork, but not some lousy urban suntour thing, a real rockshox fork. I was wondering if putting a nice legit suspension fork with a sweet hydraulic disc brake for the front would be sick! It's a 2014 or 2013 trek 7.1 so it's a 3x9 with v brakes and wide risers. I've been told maybe putting cantilever brakes would be cheaper, more fun upgrade but sounds like a lot more hassle than good ol' v brakes.

thanks!
