Given your restrictions (and the limitations of the Ikea planner), I think you have a good plan. I like the separate clean-up zone, and the protected location of the range. Given what appears to be the overlap of the door frame, you might consider using a side-loading pantry and moving the MW to an upper beside the sink. Dishes can be kept in drawers below. A narrow pull-out to the right of the fridge could be included for cans and small items, and will increase the space between the fridge and wall. Also, although it won't add much to storage, if you wrap the uppers to the left of the sink pass-through, the reveal will be the same on each side. The 2 pics bottom left are from salonva's kitchen, just posted last week: Narrow filler pull-outs:

You're thinking of the broom closet StacyLu and others created in a 5" space - you have the perfect space! The only question I have is how deep will that space be? You may have to do some additional "hacking". Normally, I would send you to IkeaFans where all the details are/were, but since that website has been pulled, I can't point you there. I have the pictures of what was done, but, unfortunately, not the text. It will take me a few minutes to find them, though. I'll be back! :-)
