The second part is whether I should bother with the RF-S or RF systems. The former might not have Canon's wholehearted support, and the latter might not be much lighter than the EF system it replaces......

To move forward from paralysis mode ...
sell all your EF/EFS gear, keeping only that which you currently use with the M adapter, such as the 50 f/1.4.  Your M kit should serve you well for the short term, giving you plenty of time to see how the R system develops.  You may discover the new R8, once available, will meet your size requirements as well as being full frame.

Combining a nice M kit with a full frame R, adding glass as you need it, is not a bad way to go and actually gives you the best of two worlds.
