MN puts the U under the goalpost for ALL FG attempts (at least, my association does), and puts the U in the offensive backfield on punt plays.
I think moving the U under the goalpost is the most logical solution; the U can still cover his area even though he's a few yards further back.
Other things you could consider:
1) wait to move the wing official until AFTER K comes out in the swinging gate formation, and have the official on the opposite side of the swinging gate cover the uprights with the BJ. This means that sometimes it'll be the L, sometimes the LJ, depending on the formation. Keeps the wing on the gate side, but requires a quick movement by the wing that has to sprint to the goalpost. Plus you still leave one sideline open.
2) have the R position himself such that he can cover the kicker and cover one upright, and have the BJ cover the other upright and the crossbar. Keeps both sidelines covered, but makes it difficult for the R to cover roughing the kicker/holder AND make sure the kick is inside of his upright.
