Yes they work well with shifts, assuming you have the Digaron retrofocus lenses. The don't work well in shift with SK28 and SK35, you can still use them if you don't shift that much though. The IQ180/IQ280 with it's smaller pixel size get a little bit larger issues, and will not produce that good results extreme-shifted even on Digaron-W wides.
We need to drop the idea that "no microlenses = good for tech cams", "with microlenses = bad for tech cams", as it's more complex than that. Each model needs to be tested what it can do with what lenses. Microlenses today do not necessarily look and work the same way as Kodak/Dalsa microlenses did.
I don't think we're going to see any sensors without microlenses anytime soon, but we can still get good tech wide angle performance. Probably the Sony CMOS would have been quite good if it just had light shields between pixels but it was not designed with that. Anyway the microlenses on the Sony CMOS don't produce any ripple artifacts from what I have seen, and I think they don't worsen crosstalk really, the crosstalk issue is more about lack of shielding between pixels. If you don't need light shields you rather don't manufacture with them as it makes the manufacturing more complex and you might reduce photo diode coverage, so there's no surprise the Sony CMOS don't have any specific shielding, it would only be tech cams that would benefit.
Backside illuminated sensors (which are getting larger and larger) put the photo diode much nearer the surface and increases sensitivity, and as a side effect greatly increases the angular response and reduces the need of pixel shielding. I would guess that the introduction of BSI techniques to MF sensors will be the first time we'll see an improvement again of tech wide compatibility. It's probably two or three generations away though.
