Has anybody tried "glass beading" shot blasting the glass plate to assist in first layer adhesion.?

One side only incase it does not work.

Nope; are you trying to clean the plate or scour it? If cleaning I would be inclined to use something softer than glass such as walnut beads, which we use for cleaning carburettor bodies.

Just to reduce the surface area and increase the pressure between the filament and the glass.

It would give any gasses or air bubbles from the hot filament a place to escape, as opposed to lifting from a flat surface.
