I'd be more worried of what can happen to all the devices attached if that single diode section decides to reverse bias. I'd wager something would let the smoke out or worse, a fire. Two charging circuits fighting each other isn't going to be pretty.
Line voltage relay that disconnects the positive lead upon AC loss. Both systems would need to have the negative tied through.
Elk's load test isn't really a good guideline when the battery should be replaced, usually standard is when the battery tests at 75% of it's rated output (AH) or less.
