<<  Also, to expand my system, I want a 50 and/or 75 and/or 90.
 

I would recommend the 50 2.0 for your consideration.  This is the highest
quality 50 in the M line.  The 50 2.8 is almost as good.  The 1.4 is an old
design and is not as good as the 50 2.0 at the larger stops.  The 50 1.0 is
really a specialty lens.

You might consider the 90 2.8.  It is reputedly sharper than the 2.0 at larger
stops.  

These are all covered by Erwin in his most excellent evaluations.
