No, the difference between the D300(s) and all other APS-C cameras is marginal.

As you can see, a little bit wider for the D300, and vertically the 7D has the advantage.
It has to do with the optics needed for the phase detect AF module, that AF point distribution is the way it is.

There's no way you can get all your wishes, then, it's like wanting a 200 f/1.2 that doesn't weight a lot. Had it been just the placement, live view and electronic viewfinders could have worked, but you also want it to be very fast, which they aren't. Tough.
