Alastair:

The screen being in the way of the viewfinder doesn't seem to be a 
problem.  It is very similar to how a lot of professional digital 
SLR's were in the past and it wasn't a problem on then either.  With 
the DMR and R9 combo, the whole finder is visible just like it was 
prior to mounting the DMR.

Here is a link to the Canon 1D predecessor.  You can see there was 
the same sort of difference between the viewfinder and the screen.
