What are you afraid of, the chain wheel police? A 1 or 2 mm spacer is another possibility for adjusting chain line as long as he does not have a cartridge style bb and yes the chain ring spacers would work, but a thinner chain won't always work with an indexed set-up.
Why encourage things that cause abuse of equipment?. ...A BB spacer will absolutely work with a cartridge BB. There are different chain widths availabe among manufactruers in 9 speed and they all work with a shimano double.
