I have been using the EOS30 (EOS7 is for Japan market only), and at one time
considered buying the EOS5.  To me, the E-TTL flash capability, eye-control,
more focus points, more silent, had me sold on the 30.  I do hope for spot
meter from time to time, but only rarely and far between.  10% partial is
not a limitation, just some inconvenience for me, your needs may vary.

If not doing lots of flash (I do), I'd seriously consider a used EOS 5, and
spend the difference on getting better quality lens.
