I've had trouble adjusting the skew in one of your smoothers which was
the pre-setscrew design. Tapping the iron from side to side just moves
it from side to side without changing the skew. I think your set screw
mod is intended to change that, no?

It occured to me that simply tapering the mortise for the iron, so that
it is slightly wider at the top than at the bottom, might suffice.

yes that's why. it is easy to add to a already built plane. i can give you
instructions if you want.

not a bad idea. but two things. i want as much surface as I can for the wedge
so it presses down more but does not mash as much on the shoulders. and second
the inside body with varies a little bit sometimes if i can't get the full 1
7/8" width out of the wood. and if it is smaller then the tapered slots would
not work.
