Maybe a menu entry in the Options menu and a tool bar > button? Hm... I'm not quite sure what the use case here is. I mean, if you say "-q" or "-Q", it's because you want an Emacs without any customisations. So why would you then load ~/.emacs? Hm... OK... I could see that it could help with debugging the init file, for instance. You'd (setq debug-on-error t) or whatever and then hit the load button. But... if you're doing that, you're probably better off just `M-x eval-buffer' in ~/.emacs. So I'm not sure.
