That's a lot more than nothing IMHO

Semantics? Ugh.
Pressing the button
and turning the wheel adjusts sensitivity yes... and I wouldn't want that to change in the least.
Pressing
only the OK button... does nothing useful I can see, unlike when Display Sensitivity is turned Off.
The reason for my suggestion was that after handing my camera to a friend (who is looking to switch from a bridge camera to a DSLR), she took a few dozen shots, and then wanted to know how many more her SD card would hold. But naturally I had display ISO on...
So... tell her to turn the camera off and back on to see?
Tell her to turn the mode dial and change modes to a mode like SV where the ISO is dial adjustable and then press OK?
Go into custom settings and turn off Display ISO... NEVER!!!
It's a common thing for someone testing a camera to want to know, and I think the current functionality is, and workarounds are, inelegant.
They won't help sell the camera.
It's like not having a hotkey way into live view (FN + Green please) if you have Optical Preview turned on.
It all makes the camera seem more complicated to newcomers, who for some reason want to be able to simply press a button.
But I have 8GB & 16BG cards... so I rarely care about how many shots are left. And if I do I'll just reboot the camera.
