Maybe I have misunderstood the way proportioning valves work, but wouldn't the setup from an all-drum car work just fine on an all-disc car?

Cool expression, Lyle Is it original? Did Alex come up with it? Or has it been around for decades while I've been living in a cave?

No.
My car was 4 wheel drum now 4 wheel disk.
The 4 wheel drum setup just has a distribution block from what I can tell.
I used a Wilwood adjustable valve mounted under the rear seat as shown in the Boss 302 chassis book. Use rubber grommets for the lines running through the floor pan.
