Great choices I think that's a fine place to start with M43. You'll get t a lot of the benefits of  the system with that set up -  compact body and lenses, ibis, and quality video.

As far as your lens choices it is worth it to do a little research on Panasonic DFD autofocus and what lenses are compatible. I don't think the oly 17mm is unfortunately and neither us the 9-18 (though that is a solid price you found for that one) . A point in the 17 mm's favour however over the 15mm Pl is the manual focus clutch with hard stops that make it a great lens for video work.
