Heyas Yankchef!
Ummm, me personally I've never had a problem with my thumbs on the slide lever. I can however, see this as a marketable item. As yes, there definitely are a fair number of people that have the issue, and can't or won't train themselves out of it.
And considering the ease of which this particular mod could be handled, especially with a machineshop available about the only part that would be any kind of time consuming would be the cleanup to the cut, afterwards. And whatever time it takes for the blueing or chosen finish to cure so that it doesn't rust.
Honestly, I can see it as a service that would serve a niche market. Not a large market, but I can see it as being something that some folks would want.
