The unwinding of the cable really has been a problem.
Yep, it only had to happen once for me to decide to come up with a solution. I think someone may have bent the limit switch actuator arm to cause it, but I never did like the way it worked, too sensitive of an adjustment. It's a simple mod, but one that I'm sure will pay dividends over the years.

I'm not really worried about accidental activation, the switches are actually pretty stiff, and they don't project much from the fascia. Like I said, it's only if two people, one on each side, deliberately activate the switches in opposition. That seems pretty unlikely when I thought about it, so I decided that some simple circuit protection will solve the problem. I'll be including a PTC in the hot lead through the switch, this is a painless and automatic resetting solution
