I'm sure with some creative thought you can get around it without needing luigi or yoshi as standalone characters.

Mario in this ROMHack has the fire flower ability, so gliding ability from Dixie could be shown as Mario with the Tanooki suit or the cape.

Perhaps implementing something similar in spirit to Super Mario World's item storage? Then you can switch back and forth between cape and fire flower forms. The fire flower is functional in the hack, just like Yoshi. (Seeing Yoshi eating a whole Klump is a sight to behold.)

I like that idea!
