Would you settle for a 'two-touch' method for bandchanging?  If so, it 
is already there - set CONFIG: MEM 0-9 to BAND SEL   (see the manual 
page 56).
After that, assign one band to each of the 10 keypad buttons and the K3 
will remember the last used frequency on a band - tap the M>V button and 
then the keypad button corresponding to the band you want and you will 
be taken to that band.  I hardly ever use the BAND up/down button on my K3.
