Ok; so perhaps the following would suffice:

  * A minor-mode that just contains a keymap full of appropriate
    commands that redirect to the first ediff control-buffer in the list
    (perhaps conditionalized on buffer-read-only like in diff-mode).
    It looks like `ediff-prepare-buffer-hook' could be used to turn on
    the minor mode in each source buffer.

  * An ediff window-configuration function that always keeps the
    control-window hidden.
