You said OMJ includes his custom apps in /data/app, is placing the apps in there the only way to get this done? Or is it just a chef's preference? Reason I am asking is to see (since I am not a chef) if a chef could build the rom in a way that would avoid losing the apps if a person resets/wipes.

Man, and I thought I wiped a lot
Still wondering why you are wiping post flash? I've never done it (with one exception for the kernel reason I mentioned)
The app location is chef's preference, I've seen it OMJ's way and with everything in /system/app.
Apps being in /data/app make them easier to remove...as you've discovered
If you mount system as writable
adb remount
you could move everything over to /system/app and feel confident to wipe your brains out.
