I thought about something like this a LOT. Reworking the door with panels that can fold up/down, pop out legs, etc...
Then, I realized that I need two big, flat, platform steps to let my dog get up and down onto that back bed (I have an inflatable mattress as well as a foam topper, so fully deployed the bed is ~9" high). So I built a staircase from milk crates and shelves, and now he and the DW are happy. It's annoying to get to the under-bed cabinet and drawers, but some sacrifices are necessary :P
In truth, I'm still researching and thinking about possible solutions, so I'll be curious as to what others might be thinking...
