I don't believe that 200R4 is electronic, other than needing a 12v signal for the Torque converter lockup.
The 4L60E is an electronic version of the 700R4 that debuted in '92 or '93, I think. It does have electronic shifting controls that should permit an electronic shifting setup like you describe.
There's a guy in the MegaSquirt EFI community who is trying to develop a stand-alone controller that would allow exactly what you describe -- a way to shift with something like Formula-1 style paddles.
If you're interested, head over to www.msefi.com and do a search on 'Megashift'. Lance Gardiner is the guy doing the work.

Hey D.R, I have a question about the 200-R4. I saw,
somewhere, a steering column mounted shifter control
switch, if you will. On this setup, you could shift up
and down with a flick of the finger. Is the 200-R4 all
electronic and would an electric contol like that work
well? How does it shift?

Just a comment on the trans talk. I have 2 2004R
trans. One by Art Carr, non-lockup in my 72 El, 500hp BBC, 3.73 posi
rear, works great. One by Phoenix Transmission in Weatherford, this is
in the 72 Monte Carlo 330hp/350 GM crate engine and is lockup so I
have true OD on the highway which is really nice as the rear is also
3.73 posi. Both work great, the Phoenix was much cheaper. I have steered
several people towards Phoenix and they are very happy with them. I went to Phoenix because I knew someone who formally worked there,
otherwise I would have gone back to Art Carr. Anyways the 2004R can be
built and offers a weight and cost savings.
