Weed Dog,
I think that doing a proof of concept is a great way to proceed. I have tried to do this along the way in the Homemade Heat Pump Manifesto. In fact, it has been the results of the various 'proof of concept' stages that has kept me going.
Regarding the hydronic radiators AND an under floor PEX installation, using the two together should work to your advantage. You'll know how much to your advantage, when you try it out.
But, you might enjoy
this post from an EcoRenovator in Canada, wherein he used both PEX-in-slab and PEX-underfloor. His description is pretty vivid.
