That's the route I went as well.  And it not only works, but it works
with just the behaviors I was looking for (files are created with the
Kerberos principal rather than uid 501, they're assigned the same gid
as the directory in which they're created, and mounting the filesystem
requires only a user principal rather than full-blown host/nfs keys).

Yes, and it wouldn't be surprising if this was the code they haven't
gotten to yet.
