Will this work for the soon-to-be-released TV-Out version?

I would say the basics of my idea would.  even if they change the wiring all you really need to do is make sure all your wires continue straight through to the box.  you can use any connector you like.  I chose RJ45 because its quick and I have all teh tools for it here at work.  As for the jumper and solution regarding the calibration mode,  I have no idea.  When they start shipping if someone wants to pull thiers apart and send me some pics I can add them to the tutorial if there is a difference.

Calling them "retard connectors" isn't exactly cool.
If you build a frankenpanel, chances are I don't care for you as a person.
