Jon, with respect to the effective raising of the output during
transition, in practice I've never actually experienced it like that...
I have things set so that when the first song drops below a certain
level *for the last time* (my current configuration on winamp is -10db,
but I've often used -24db), you start the next song at full volume, and
fade out the first song over the rest of the buffer... usually this
results in what sounds like a pretty quick transition.  For a song with
a long fade out, the overlap can sometimes be weird, purely due to the
source songs being overlapped.

I'm definitely not suggesting this is something that everyone would
like - but I've been DJ'ing parties (and listening to it this way
myself) using this exact setup for several years, and have had a lot of
positive comments from happy listeners about how good things cut
together.

My main point is really along the overall lines of having more
crossfade options - if you have things setup with any sort of mixing
buffer, something other than the current crossfade really would be
nice.  I think I'd actually be happy with the current crossfade as is,
if I only had the option to not fade in the next song, but just fade
out the old one.
