This is a good point. But, could those who havn't finished shemonah esrei 
be yotzi with the tzibbur?  or, it the problem that the congregation 
doesn't necessarily have the intent to include everyone else.

on a related note: The Soleivetich machzor points out that the Rav 
believed that the congregation should hear every word of the hatzarat 
ha-shatz... including the Modim Anachnu.  This suggests that the Shaliach 
Tzibbur should also say Modim Anachnu aloud, rather than the common 
practice of saying it in a mumble while the tzibbur says the Modim 
d'Rabbanan.
