I lowered my saddle when I moved to midfoot and produce just as much power as before. I'm faster because my fat guts is now and aerofoil with the top tube. ;)
Are you a sprinter or an enduro racer? That will go some way to deciding your optimal crank length. I'd be inclined to go as long as possible on the track if I was riding enduro and then match with the road bike if that's where most training happens. If it seems to hamper your jumps, maybe it was the wrong choice. I think you need to experimetn though.
