I contacted DreamLine which manufactures lots of shower doors. It reported the following models that do not require drilling into the shower base (aka "threshold). SHDR-1260728-01 Duet SHDR-0960720-01 Infinity-Z SHDR-1160726-01 Visions These are 56-60 in. W x 72 in. sliding shower doors (I asked about 60 in. doors for my project) but DreamLine doors come in many sizes.

The Kohler Salient shower base is cast iron. The Kohler Fluence is one (of many) frameless sliding shower doors recommended by Kohler for use with the Salient base. Per the Fluence installation instructions, one does not attach the shower door bottom track -- supplied with the door -- to the shower base. Instead, one drills holes for wall jambs on either end of the shower base and then positions the wall jambs over the track to hold it in place. This eliminates the need to drill any holes into the shower base itself.

Amanda: Yes, I came across a new shower door by WBS called its 6000 series...https://www.wardrobeandbath.com/featured It has a track and NO header...the only one like this I have seen. It does require 1/2" glass but I'm OK with that. My glass person can put same thing together using C R Laurence parts, as I want low iron glass and Shower Guard, which WBS does not provide. The one thing that I am waiting on is his confirmation that the track does not require screws, and can be adhered to the cast iron with just adhesive. If so, I will be all set. Total cost would be $3200. Fingers crossed...

Ending Tile in Kitchenette. Notice at the right side of this kitchen by Cabri how the backsplash aligns with the upper and lower cabinets — while the counter hangs out over that line a little bit — rather than extending to the end of the counter and sticking out past the upper cabinets (which to me would be much less tidy).
