The Wasserman rewind crank is a great thing but you have to be careful. You can put side loads on the rewind shaft that it was not designed to support. This can bend the shaft. So it is important to support that the length of extended shaft with the tip of a finger (I am beginning to sound like a broken record!). If I had a button rewind camera, I would probably use a Wasserman rewind as you have suggested but I would be very careful and rewind slowly.
