"I have used GF1 with M lens before. I thought it was good but not good enough due to focusing via liveview."Liveview is how all m43 and NEX cameras operate, there is no other option. No optical view as there is no mirror and (for a simpler term) no periscope system.
"What do you think about Sony NEX-7? It has electrical viewfinder built in but slightly bigger than NEX-5. "
The nex 7 wont have in built image stabilization, but for all other features, its really in another league to the cameras you listed and its price will reflect that.
The new EVF on the NEX 7 is crazy good, whatdigitalcamera said the A77 (same evf as the nex 7) is the first evf they have used and its felt like an optical viewfinder.
Crazy good high iso, Sony sensors are among the best, even the NEX5 sensor is comparable to a canon 60D sensor (which is probably made by sony as they make loads of sensors), in fact its better than a 60d for everything except low light which it is fractionally worse in.

BUT sensor comparisons mean little without good lenses. NEX has a limited lens range, but using a leica lens negates this.
NEX 7 would be your best bet, only down side is the lack of stabilization.
