Can I Disable the Starter Lockout Function

In the stock configuration, there is a re-start lockout function on the ignition that prevents re-engaging the starter without first turning the key to the OFF position. I'd like to be able to do a restart without doing so.

I have a manual shutoff switch and a manual glow switch so I don't need the functionality to either shut off the engine or enable glow plugs with the ignition. I'd like to be able to just restart without going back to OFF.

I know I could add a manual starter switch but I'd like to keep the ignition key to activate the starter, just without having to go back to OFF.

Don't care if the solution also disables the steering lock - don't need that either.

This is on my 617 powered 107 which has an ignition module virtually identical to the 123 just without the vacuum shutoff bits.
