I do not understand why anyone would want ditchable weight. So an uncontrolled trip to the surface is what you are looking for? How you would find yourself in a situation where shooting to the surface is beyond me... A weight belt with an easy release is just asking for trouble. You know where my weight is? Always attached to my backplate. I stay in control and use my equipment properly and I will never require to dump my weight. The only time it makes sense is on a recovery, when you are sending a body to the surface.
You would want to ditch your weight at the surface, there have been several cases when someone surfaced, and then drowned because they were unable to stay afloat, and orally inflating a BC is quite a bit more complicated than ditching your weight belt, especially if the BC is ruptured or cannot hold air. I have experienced being pulled down under water (in a pool in controlled conditions), and I can assure you it's a really stressful experience when the water begins to cover your mouth and you cannot swim up. Unlike in technical diving, recreational divers usually do not carry redundant buoyancy, and there should be no deco obligation, and if a diver is unable to remain calm and solve the problem under water, an emergency ascent is probably still better than drowning.
