This is a generalisation of the FRC FEN castling flags, and makes sense to me. I think this is the best option.

Well, it would do the reverse of FRC castlings.

Oh, I don't think that is a good idea. Some uniformity between FEN strings for variants is desirable, otherwise it becomes a confusing mess.

Otherwise you would have to write ABCDEFGHabcdefgh in the initial position...

Yes, but other than being excessively verbose, that's not a real problem. Note that FEN strings of positions further along in the game become simpler, so the problem goes away by itself. To simplify things further, you can suppress the information once both pieces have been gated in.
