Do these exist? I know a couple EM games would launch the ball up from between the flippers with the right flipper button, but are there examples of a mechanism that launches from the shooter lane in Solid State games prior to the advent of the DMD?

No sure about the shooter lane, but Firepower had a ball save on the left drain that would punch the ball out of the drain back onto the playfield when lit.

Spectrum launched from between the flippers as well as Baby Pacman (If you want to call that a pin).
