A friend is looking at getting a P&S and is looking for a compact
model that doesn't have a micro size sensor, they want a bit of DOF
control if possible. Also on the list is a decent amount of optical
zoom with good optics. TIA for models to look at.

I don't know if it will meet your friends standards for "compact",
but the Sony DSC-R1 is a P&S with a 21.5 x 14.4 mm sensor.

By comparison, the sensor on the F717 somebody else suggested is
8.8 x 6.6 mm.

The DSC-R1's sensor is CMOS not CCD. You're comparing
apples to oranges. Also, the R1 lacks basic features found on
almost all P&S cameras, such as a movie mode.
