I have seen pictures of the reverse style levers stuck in the ends of the 
bar but it looks awkward, but doesn't take up had real estate.

The drop portion isn't as long as an Albatross so it might be cramped with 
a lever clamped on, but the new Albastache does have more room than the old 
Moustache.

Velo orange makes a lever compatible with both road (23.8mm) and with shims 
for MTB/city sized (22.2mm) handlebars.

You could also use interrupter levers, by themselves if you find the kind 
where the cable end sits nicely where the housing usually goes.

Or you can get a similar effect with a Billie bar and a longer stem.
