I may just have to knuckle under and use the Inverter's CB so it doesn't see external 120 coming to it from anywhere and only output it.
You want to be looking at the "inline" diagram:

The difference is the non-inline diagram is setup if you only want to run specific outlets off the inverter.

With the inline diagram you're simply taking the output of the inverter and running it to the input of the A/C panel (basically putting it in between the coaches transfer switch and the A/C panel). This does mean that you have to realize that, when running on the inverter, you won't have the power available to run the air conditioning or the microwave. Running a sub panel only to specific outlets makes that a "hard decision" in that the air conditioning or microwave simply won't run.

I'm not sure why you don't think the inverter will be smart enough to charge/not charge based on voltage at its inputs. That is part of the basic function of the inverter/charger combo.

The thing is you have to make sure there aren't any additional chargers running off of 120V in the system.
