I gave some thought about this and think you are mostly correct. 0.9X viewfinder is 0.9X regardless of the format. However, it might not be practically correct. What I mean is, 50mm for film SLR = 33mm for *istD/DS/DL practically. Since wider angle lens yield smaller image details through the viewfinder, smaller format is more difficult to manual focus in practical sense. It is like using 33mm on film SLR and it is more difficult to manual focus than 50mm on the same body, just that now the edges have been masked in D/DS/DL. I hope I am making sense.
