Mixing cantilever and V-brakes on same bike

Due to clearance issues, I am seriously having to consider putting a V-brake as a rear brake on a bike.
The front will be cantilever, for the moduclation/adjustability advantages.

hence the problem
are there road levers that are convertible to use different pull modes? (I am aware of mtb flat levers that do this)

And since the answer is most likely 'no'; does any company make road levers in both cable styles; where the ergonomics and external appearance of the levers is identical between the two models?

travel agents I hope to avoid; unless someone makes an inline variant with greatly enlarged pulleys compared to the 'noodle' mounted style.

thanks
