But when I finally switch back to the imagefreeze stream, then the output is un-recognizable.  Just junk.  Is there something that I'm missing from my pipeline to get the output to be able to switch back and for arbitrarily many times?  Am I mis-understanding how the input selector works?

The pipeline looks good. Can you narrrow it down, e.g. replace the
"appsrc --> h264legacyparse --> h264decode" part with videotestsrc? Can
you post a screenshot of the junk on some image-pastebin and add the
link here? If it still happens with videotestsrc a standalone example
that can be turned into a test case later would be great.
