Yesterday afternoon I dropped the frameset off with August Bicycles, where I was greeted by Gav, who seems a thoroughly nice dude with a very enviable workshop and great taste in death metal.
Have decided to have the rest of the downtube guides removed and extra threaded inserts brazed onto the bottom of the DT for those bolt-on triple housing guides, with a front derailleur cable stop. on the seat tube and cable-tie guides on the chainstay. Will also have some holes drilled and reinforcements brazed on the right fork leg for the dynamo cable. As nice as full internal dynamo routing sounds, I can't think of a way to do it that doesn't involve seatpost shenanigans (or that won't drive me insane).
The SP hub arrived yesterday, so I can get on with wheelbuilding shortly!
