So, I have these - winwood decksters:

They work great. What they are is a platform that accepts an spd style cleat on the bottom. Mount the cleat to them and then pop them into the clipless pedal. It takes some work to twist them out (it won't happen accidentally in my experience) and if you want them to be really tight (if your pedals allow it) just crank the release force up. I've even used these for mountain biking (non technical) and they worked fine.
So when you want to use street shoes, just snap them in. Here's a good review of them that matches my experience.

I've wasted my money buying these, and there is *no way* you did any sort of real mountain biking on them. They constantly squirm under my foot, and while they never came off on a half hour ride I felt like they would if I actually put full power on them.
The double sided clipless with the platform around the clipless part aren't great for longer riding, but even those are better than the above than the decksters in my experience.
