The kiddie pool is a good idea. Probably hard to find one deep enough to allow you to fully dangle your feet, but it is better than nothing. It'd be great for chasing leaks though.
My inflator bag's nozzles ones have the pusher on it already. It'd be difficult to use a flimsy plastic bag otherwise due to the pressure needed to move the flapper away. You're right - you don't lose much air because though the bulk of the inflation is complete, there is no pressure built up. I can fill both bladders easily in under 3 minutes with the bag. Probably pretty comparable to using a double action pump.
Are you somehow disengaging the flapper on a Boston valve with an inflator sack and nozzle system? Seems like the little holes would be too small to accept a pin enough to do much at all. Or are you talking about the oral inflator tube for the seats?
