Note: I have RFZ drawn for two window sizes. 5 ft window => 6 ft RFZ, 5'6" window => 4 ft RFZ

I could have either or do the adjustable panel thing. (If the panel becomes an issue I can always permanently install it. It will sit inside the window sill, hopefully unseen.)

I just realized I did not include the angles in the dimensions. They are (approx) 162 (in the mid of room) and 198 (toward the front)

What do you think?
Now I think you've hit on the best solution. I feel it's best by a mile to go with the smaller window/ larger RFZ. Other than that you're good to go. Of course you need some nice fat bass traps behind the speakers. I'd make the trap as deep as possible on the front wall, then angle the traps at 30 degrees behind the speakers.
