The closest thing I've been able to find has been the above Y-cable except
with a 1/8" headphone jack instead of 1/4".  I use it with a 1/8->1/4 adaptor
for my 1/4" headphones to plug into, though this is annoying because the
result seems physically kind of fragile and kludgey.

[Actually the _plugs_ on the Y-cable I found are also 1/8" plugs, but it came
with 1/8->1/4 adaptors for them, and that sort of adaptor is fairly small and
inconspicuous.]

I found it at the japanese consumer-gadgets chain `bic camera', and always
thought that surely a _real_ electronics supply store would have something
nicer...
