As someone who does a lot of introducing, if someone already owes me a favor, sometimes I try to cut the middle step of, "Would you talk to X?" and just cc: them both, but I realize it's a bit presumptuous.
As the OP rightfully suggests, it's the little things in etiquette that are important.

I do this as well, though it seems in my field this is fine and acceptable behavoir (Unless you're from a competing research group...)
