d3 transitioning from bar to pie and back

LIVE DEMO

So I have this notion that all single axis data should be allowed to be displayed in all the basic ways; and at the very least from a pie to a bar. Ideally this would be an animated transition, but thats were the difficulty comes in.

Getting a pie chart to work is easy enough, as is getting a bar chart. Here is what I have so far:

# fields
width   = 750
height  = width/2
margin  = 20
radius  = (height-(margin*2))/2

# helpers
pie     = d3.layout.pie().value (d) -> d 
arc     = d3.svg.arc()
    .outerRadius(radius)
    .innerRadius(radius/4)
x       = d3.scale.linear().domain([0, 100]).range [0, width]

$http.get('/Classification_Top_10_by_Count.json').success (data) ->

    percents = (parseFloat item.Percent for item in data).sort d3.ascending

    svg      = d3.select('#svgStage').append('svg')         
        .attr('width', width+(margin*2))
        .attr('height', height+(margin*2))

    svg.data([percents])

    g = svg.append('g')
        .attr('transform', "translate(#{radius},#{radius})")

    paths   = g.selectAll 'path'

    paths.data(pie).enter().append('path')
        .attr('d', arc)

    toBars = ->
        g.selectAll('path').transition().duration(2000) 
            .attr 'd', (d, index) ->
                # this is over complex because I was playing with it.
                cord = 
                    tl : [0,          index*20]
                    tr : [d.value*20, index*20]
                    br : [d.value*20, index*20-20]
                    bl : [0,          index*20-20]
                oCord = [
                    cord.tl
                    cord.tr 
                    cord.br 
                    cord.bl
                ]
                "M #{oCord[0][0]}, #{oCord[0][2]}
                A 0, 0 0 0, 0 #{oCord[1][0]}, #{oCord[1][3]}
                L #{oCord[2][0]}, #{oCord[2][4]}
                A 0, 0 0 0,
