Could something like these Shimano mtb shifters be used instead of bar-ends: http://bike.shimano.com/publish/content/global_cycle/en/us/index/products/mountain/New_Deore_XT/product.-code-SL-M780-I.-type-.sl_mountain.html Or if you're a Campy user, how about something like these Veloce flat bar shifters, could they work with these bars: http://www.probikekit.com/us/components/gear-levers-shifters/campagnolo-veloce-flat-bar-bicycle-shifters-10-speed.html Good Luck!
