Also the start button will not work unless the ignition is in the 'On' position.

Instead of that switch, you should be able to use a latching relay: basically a relay that kicks on after the starter is engaged and keeps the starter button from working until you cycle the IGN line off and back on, resetting the relay. It would take some research to find the exact relay and wiring needed to make it work, but it would be an idiot proof, zero step, solution.
That's basically how remote start systems prevent the user from engaging the starter with the key while the car is running after a remote start.
