The classic schwinn stem shifters are a good option. They bolt onto the stem, freeing up lots of space on the bar. Also, the dual-pull brake lever mentioned is another great option.
Too much stuff on handlebars.

I worry about those dual pull brakes. It seems like it would be impossible to set both brakes exactly the same, and you'd end up trying to brake, and only one of them would make contact. The second one wouldn't press against the rim much until the first one had worn down a bit.
Maybe there's some sort of rocker in it that equalizes the force.

The dual pull brake lever has a rocker mechanism that equalises the force between both brake cables, but with a limited amount of rocker travel, so if one brake cable snaps, the other brake cable can still apply tension; stopping the bike.
