The dangerous part is where you're still on but LD. In my opinion, you do not need to be so paranoid about ground drops, I have done it like 25-30 times between chars with no problems. You don't, and shouldn't, need to have both clients up at the same time on the same computer.

Find a secluded space, position both chars there. Put items in a bag, drop it. Sit and camp. Logoff, all the way off, and log back on with new character, pick up items. That's it. As long as you don't take like 5 minutes to log back in, you're fine. An extra 30 seconds or so from correctly switching chars does not matter. OR - ask someone for help, that works too. I've never had an exemption and so I don't know the in's and out's of how it works, but as far as the actual transfer goes you do not need to do everything possible to minimize time between drop and pickup. And anyway, since you have a legit exemption, just wait until your other person is available and use them to transfer.
