First sorry, Im working I have no time to read your post, I hope it can help you, I really understand your feeling about this problem....
After doing everything on this board, my car did like your.
What I did (and it worked!!) : unbolt what you can of the tranny screws. Sand all the galvanized stuff on it. Try to sand the inner filet too.
Use diaelectric grease and put the srews back.
Hope its a new answer... lol . Cost nothing.
good luck

and it's been working fine for years now) . This is much, much easier than what you described and would accomplish the same thing.

Check your camshaft sensor, one of the wires in mine was frozen and I had that starting issue where your car cranks, makes a small pause and then cranks again and starts. I replaced the sensor and the car works like a champ now.

Hmm... wow your car is still having problem? I remembered thinking, YES we have solved another problem, but I guess, not? 
But from what you posted, your starter is still spinning even though you took the key out. Which means that somehow it is still getting power, that is not from the ignition switch.
I wish I could just drive over to your house and see this for myself because I am having a hard time visualizing all the little parts and stuff in our cars, but I think there was another member a while back who had the same mysterious issue, where the car would keep running after the key was out.
