Yeah, sounds good, but not so trivial to achieve. When extend existing modifier it inherit the delegate properties but not it methods and this is fatal limitation in this case, as we can not get nor yet set any sub-obj-selection.
Well, its possible to make new modifier from scratch (that not extend anything), but this come with tons of weaknesses and limitations, so not worth the efforts.
You can add new EditPolyMod on top of the stack and invert the sub-obj-level selection you like. And this can be automated with macro-script.
