Leaving the heat in the cat sounds like an interesting solution, i.e. wrap and not dfco (forcing "cooling" air through the converter).

Good point on DFCO. I hadn't thought of that.
Here's a low-tech idea. This would not be viable for the regular joe, but how about an insulated cover where you pull a lever and the cover keeps the cat hot while you coast? The cover could be a single part that "slides over" the cat or a double door aka space shuttle doors that cover the cat.
Powered and automatic would be nice, but no-power and manual would save energy, be a good version 1.0, and allow you to test the mod. You'd still need the temperature probe.
