I know there are several lights that have both a side switch and a tail switch. These either have a tail switch for power + side switch for mode, or use a proprietary battery of sorts.
Couldn't someone make a light with a thin body between the main body and cell? This could be anodized and be used as the second negative terminal to the front of the light. This would let you have 2 independent switches with full control from either one of them, and you could use standard cells.
The negatives I see,
1. It might be challenging for the second body to make good contact with the head, this might require a spring.
2. The light would have to be a few mms wider to accompany the extra wall.
Alternatively, I'm sure an adaptor could be made for any 21700 lights that take proprietary cells. The adaptor would take 18650s instead.
Thoughts, suggestions, criticisms?
