Sensor size defines the price tag of a camera as well as the size and weigth of lenses, better to say the whole system.
Today we comapre APS-C, FF, MF size cameras/lenses. There is not enough room to build a system around FF with different image circles. Ricoh tried that with lens boxes for the GXR - combine sensor and lens to be mounted on the camera body for capture and processing.
Lots of dicussion about something that requires a change in basic parameters first - price and size of lenses/sensors.

What you are really asking for composition masks for overlay. The MP count will not change. Similar with cars, you can go slowly with a 300hp car, but you always carry 300hp with you. If you feel that 20hp is fine, get a very old car, but don't go shopping for a new one. The MP do not cost anything. Sensors with less pixels don't really cost less and havong some extra pixels is a sales point. Composition masks would be nice. Some medium format camera backs allow uploading of drawings for composition or even masks. Besides that K1 has severl crop modes already, so we solution is close.
