Using a Bridgeport Slotting Head as a nibbler ???

That's a beast :)
Only issue I've had with jigsaws are the quick change type blade holders letting go.
I now use one of the evolution cutting discs in my circular saw. Is has a metal guard and the speed rating is ok. Works well but can only do straight cuts.

Andrew, that's what I did. Some time ago I had a unit which comprised table/frame with NVR switch and replaceable insert tables. The one for the router was OK for a 1/4" router but flexed too much for a 1/2" ELU, so that insert got re-purposed to hold a power nibbler.

So does it perform as you'd hoped - is it nice and controllable ?
