I just tried a few combinations. On MF, the E-P1 will initially enlarge the 
center portion of the image for focusing. (this is a nice feature).  After 
that, the shutter release is essentially immediate.

No, I haven't ... that's why I asked.

I have experienced problems shooting action, both with film and with 
digital, due to the delay between the time I press the shutter release 
and the shutter operation, but I learned to compensate and overcome that.

Moot in any case. I don't expect to be in the market for a new camera 
any time soon, and these mirrorless designs don't sound like what I will 
be looking for when I am.
