All a bit messy. I'd add a まごう reading, but it doesn't inflect.

Really? The JEs have many examples of まごう being used that way and none of まごう. Most don't even have a まごう entry.
I suspect it would be better to have a separate 紛う/まごう entry. 
GG5 has an entry for 紛う事なき/まごうことなき, but it's a bit special.
