I am starting to work on this, and wanted to outline some of the steps...
Once we have the VCF in hand, we move to the single-cell portion
This leave a lot of detail to be filled in, but I hope to make progress by attacking each of these steps separately to start, then slowly stitching them into a more robust workflow.
I'm going to go ahead and close this.
Oh - we found genetic demultiplexing to be better than cell hashing (more recall, high concordance). If of interest, Ariel can share her results.

@cgreene my message was a bit terse, but we closed this because we have a completed genetic demultiplexing workflow in this repository (https://github.com/AlexsLemonade/alsf-scpca/tree/main/workflows/genetic-demux), and genetic demultiplexing is included in production (docs: https://scpca.readthedocs.io/en/latest/processing_information.html#genetic-demultiplexing). Nothing left to explore!
You may want to also add genetic demultiplexing as a complementary approach (or a ticket to have it as a possibility) if folks multiplexed samples. It may also reveal if there are free-floating nucleic acids around from one or more of the samples (genetic demultiplexing will fail on many cells with a mixture but cell hashing won't necessarily). I don't think this is a breaking issue (cell hashing should be better unless the samples have some significant fraction of compromised tissue, in which case you'd just be filtering "cells" that ended up as a mixture with genetic demultiplexing.
