You could have something like this that I made and fitted to a Peter Eaton International which works pretty much like flute trill keys or oboe feather keys and can be done with hardly any modifications made to your clarinet (no extra holes drilled, no extra pillars fitted or any other keywork modifications made to the existing keywork) as the original LH F/C lever can be put back on at any time (please excuse the out of focus photo):

I first saw a double LH F/C and Ab/Eb key like this on a Buffet - the original key was kept and the double one was made specially for it.

More photos can be found here if you scroll down to where it says 'Keywork Modifications':
