We used bisected circle solder jumpers on the old Iomega Zip line of 
products.  They were much like your top right idea.  We included or 
excluded them in the solder stencil to get their default bridged or 
unbridged production state.  They were very small, maybe only a 
millimeter in diameter at the largest.
If I remember properly there were larger jumpers like them in the 
Commodore 1541 drive as well that were used to change the drive number 
so that multiple drives could exist on the same chain.
