I'm with the primers. I much prefer using the 85/1.8 to the FA80-320, and find it more useful generally because it's faster.
However, a bit of self-discipline goes a long way, and it's perfectly easy to look at a subject, decide on a focal length, then apply that to a zoom lens, before walking around the subject for the optimum balance between foreground and background. It is easier with a good tight MF zoom like the 70-210/4, but it's not too difficult with the FA28-70/4, or the A24-50/4, using only the marked focal lengths.
