What I have in mind is to install both systems side-by-side and then 
asking the user to choose one or the other, and then adding a small 
script to switch between the two methods.  The switch for a plain LFS 
system looks quite doable.  I'm not so sure about BLFS packages though.

This is a relatively long term project.  I'm intentionally going slow so 
it may be a few weeks before is shows up in the development portion of 
the book.
