Re: using the humbucker split with a 5-way, even if you can (and I don't know,) it wouldn't be worth it, if you ask me. The bobbins on the humbucker are too close together. In other words, I don't think there would such a great (or at least useful) difference between, say, bridge + HB bobbin #1, and bridge + HB bobbin #2. I've never tried it, I could be wrong, and maybe others will disagree.

I concur. It can be easily done, but is not worth the effort. Not only will you (probably) not hear much difference between each of the two coils played solo, but you also lose the traditional warm humbucker tone - a humbucker's coils are played in series, not parallel as a standard 5-way scheme would have them.
You could certainly do some slick stuff with a Superswitch - I always do!
