Jonathan,
There's lots of interesting stuff here, assuming it works as you
expect. (I haven't tested any of it.) Just a couple of comments:
1. Have you put any effort into getting Cygwin's latex (tetex, I
think) to work? Presumably then, you wouldn't need miktex.
2. If you're not happy maintaining two command shells, but still must
use miktex, you might be able to write a shell script to invoke
miktex from bash. (However, I don't know *why* bash can't invoke
miktex for you, so maybe a script won't help you either...)
