Nice idea for the inlays. And as far as the body plan goes, I don't mind paying 15 bucks for a nice plan.
About the electronics, you just reminded me of something I forgot to put on the list. A DPDT on-on-on switch. My plan is this:

The physical orientation of the parts is not how I'll have it, but the electronics are the same. That diagram will give me:
"+" = parallel
"x" = series
toggle up, T-switch selects B+M, M+N, N+B
toggle in center position, T-switch selects B, M, N
toggle down, T-switch selects BxM, M, NxM
Props to JohnH over at the guitarnuts forum for the idea.
