In that message Jon suggested splitting site selection into two pages,
one for cygwin.com mirrors and one for additional user URLs.  The
latter would be visible only if the user had previously checked a
suitable checkbox.

I attempted to implement this but found it to be too complicated.
This patch series implements a variant of that suggestion.  There is
still only one site selection page, but it now has a checkbox "Allow
sites that are not cygwin.com mirrors".  The box is initially
unchecked unless the "last-mirror" user setting in setup.rc contains a
non-mirror.

Will this interfere with running setup -gM using an "unofficial" last-mirror
to skip to the package upgrade/selection page?

No, it doesn't seem to.
