This concept is basic enough so that I am sure it has been explored by others and has been given other names. The concept is the same as Relay Chess, but applies to opposing pieces. A quick search hasn't produced these exact games for me but if anyone can produce the historical record of these variants, I'd appreciate it (and perhaps I'll withdraw the entry.)

http://www.chessvariants.org/piececlopedia.dir/mimics.html

Is the page you are looking for. It covers all types of pieces that move
as other pieces, in various ways and circumstances. Though I do think you 
should keep your page up, because it offer a good jumping off point to your 
presets. A line of credit about mimics should suffice. Also your variants 
provides extensions to mimicing pieces not on original page. For example 
mixing mimes and mimickers.
