The IDEX (dual X carriage solution) is probably the best solution, but also the most expensive. You don't need to get the nozzles exactly the same height unless you want to print 2 identical parts simultaneously using both hot ends, because each hot end can have its own Z offset. You can use bed probing and bed compensation.
There is quite a lot of discussion about this type of machine in the BigBox forum at e3d-online.

The alternative hot end mounting system that E3D is prototyping may help with this.
Do you have any link for that?
