I take no responsibility for the accuracy of the above..it may just be my luck..this is a '12 13" MBP, 10.8.2.

Let me know how this works for everyone..very hacky and a PITA, but maybe DL can get a workaround going in the meantime.
Tried to unload the kext on my vintage MBP 3.1 and got a kernel panic in com.apple.iokit.IOGraphicsFamily.

Dynamic graphics kext unloading is an old limitation in OS X, it seems to have been resolved in ML but it's evidently not reliable.
But the idea is interesting, we'll investigate further.

Cheers,
