I've considered this and other alternatives and here's why I had to get NEX-6 even though I really wanted to have a touch screen (Sony you...)
Why I didn't get E-PL5:
No built in flash and image stabilization which is not good for video. It will give a lot of jello effect. You can search e-pm2 (essentially the same camera) vs OMD image stabilization. So if recording your life includes a serious consideration for video e-pl5 and e-pm2 will not do well.
Why I didn't get nex-5r:
It overheats in video just like 5n did. Nex-6 is the only one nex that doesn't have the issue. I care about video so while touch screen is higher in my list then EVF I couldn't get it. One thing I would say though has anyone considered putting an anti-glare screen protector on these cameras. Ive seen it on the iPhone and let me tell you it makes a world of difference. No glare equals superbly improved visibility even in direct sunlight. It am easy improvement. You might loose a bit of contrast but it doesn't matter.
Btw I've tried GX1 still need to return it back to Costco. Let me tell you that camera is not even in the same league as the NEX. I can do a whole thread on the things that are wrong with it if you ever used the nex in comparison.
At the end of the day I still miss the touch screen especially for video (darn you Sony) but as an overall package it was the only one that fit my bill.
