Peaking to get there quickly and magnification to fine tune.

That makes eminent sense.   One thing I hate is turning the focus ring and getting a completely blurry magnified view which I can't even be sure is the subject and then struggling to keep it centered as I crank the focus ring 180 degrees or more in order to see what the heck I'm focusing on.  Using peaking for coarse focusing would eliminate that, as long as you have an easy way to pop the magnified view up when you need it.
