Trevor, 

Thanks for showing those sketches, in all of the options my worry is that it provides the switch from VE to wikitext editor at such a prominent level that it appears they are of equal importance, and of higher importance than the other VE tools

If we do have a choice presented to users, it should only be more
advanced users, as a concession since they are likely going to need to
continue using Wikitext for some time while VE matures and supports more
tasks.

Could those advanced users cook a gadget and be done with this problem? A piece of code that does the trick and VisualEditor and MediaWiki teams don't need to bother about.
