Not sure the above will change things too much. It's a function, not a 
Customize interface (which could be added for the current format of 
project-switch-commands), and its valid values would have to be 
documented and understood by the user anyway. We could as well put its 
body in the documentation as customization instructions.

Now, I think the current setup is pretty good already. The extra 
capability that the patch brings will be the ability to turn on 
project-switch-use-entire-map in their local configs.

Are there people here who intend to do that?
