What would be really nifty would be independent fully user selectable aspect ratio viewfinder and LCD monitors (as well as the usual presets - obviously only one would be a native aspect ratio, and the one to use for critical focus, and others would be scaled) as options. With a camera this flexible and adaptable, I can see some people putting weird and wonderful and unforeseen lens arrangements on it.
Not sure if I was the first or last with this idea! However, my hopefully unique addition would be making them independent.
The reason I would want to have them independent is that I might like to see an overscan on a reframeable sensor crop on one of them, but keep a blackbarred standard aspect ratio on another for easy at a glance in-camera framing. Aspect ratio gridlines or marks are fine, but can add to visual clutter.
