One way forward would be for Amazon to charge another 43% in app to cover the 30% Apple commission, making it clear that the book was cheaper if bought via the browser option, but then they'd presumably fall foul of the Agency Pricing agreement.

Actually they could do that. You can charge MORE for a book under Agency, just not less than the floor.

Apple would go apoplectic, but in theory it's totally allowable.
