Hmmm, didn't sound like a crackhead question to me but I've been called worse. Anyways, some other options are using the Shimano bar end shifters that many of the touring folk use or I've also seen downtube shifter mounts that attach to the stem. The TT industry has plenty of options as you have found in your links.
