I ended up buying both, at great prices

Thanks to everyone who replied. I actually got both of them because I got a couple of screaming good deals:

I paid $185 for my E-P5, and I paid $150 for my E-PL7, which is the same that I was able to sell my very low use E-PL5 for.

So far, I prefer the ergonomics of the E-PL7, but the feature set and battery compatibility of the E-P5. Stay tuned for a final decision. I've been under the weather, so I haven't had a chance to seriously shoot with either one,

The photo student whom I was going to give my E-PL5 will now be getting whichever of these I don't keep.  When I realized I could get the E-PL7 for so little, I just bought it and put my E-PL5 up for sale, and got the same money for it as I paid for the E-PL7
